Installing the Mower

Preparing the Tractor
Install the mower on a level concrete surface. Rougher dirt
or lawn surfaces make installation more difficult.
1. Position the tractor and mower side by side, with the
mower on the right side of the tractor.
2. Set the parking brake, raise the attachment lift, stop the
engine, and remove the ignition key.
3. If you have previously had a snowthrower, blade, or
tiller attached to the attachment lift, remove the two
clevis pins on each side of the attachment lift (Fig. 4).
