Blower Cone Installation
Thread (1) 5/16"-18 Jam Nut P#(K0120) onto each end of (2) 5/16"-18 x 2-1/2" HHCS P#(K0125), refer to Figure A.
Next, partially thread (1) bolt into each of the two threaded bosses located on the Blower Housing. Position the
Blower Cone so the tabs line up with the bolts and tighten completely, refer to Figure B. Once the (2) bolts are tight,
tighten the Jam Nuts against the threaded boss, refer to Figure C. See Figure D for proper Blower Cone installation.

Boot Kit Installation
Secure the boot plate P#(B1815) to the aluminum boot P#(E1126) using (2) 3/8"-16 x 1" carriage bolts P#(K1182) and
(2) 3/8"-16 nylon flange locknuts P#(K2038). Insert the bolts from the inside so that the threads are on top of the boot.
This will prevent grass clippings from collecting on the bolt threads. Leave the hardware loose until the boot assembly
has been attached to the mower deck. Lift the grass deflector and slide the boot plate under the grass deflector rod.
Close any gaps between the boot and the mower deck by adjusting the position on the boot in the boot plate slots.
Tighten all hardware at this time. Refer to Figure E.
