MAINTENANCE

Deck Lift Spring

When mowing 2" (5.1 cm) or lower, it may be
necessary to adjust the deck lift springs. Access
the springs by tilting the seat forward. Loosen the
nut to adjust the spring tension.

Neutral Adjustment

'Perform the adjustment with the machine parked
on level ground and the park brake engaged.
1. Raise the rear wheels of the machine and
support it with jack stands.
2. Start the engine. If the either wheel turns while
the machine's park brake is engaged, the
neutral linkage for the corresponding wheel
must be adjusted.
3. To access the control rod linkage, unlatch and
rotate the seat forward.
4. Remove and retain the pin from the front
coupler.
5. Turn the hex nut by hand in either direction
until the wheel stops turning.
6. Turn the hex again, counting the number of
turns with the flat surfaces of the nut. Stop
turning when the wheel spins in the opposite
direction.
7. Turn the nut back, one half of the amount of
turns counted in Step 6.
8. Repeat with the opposite wheel if necessary.

Park Brake

WARNING! Faulty adjustment will result
in reduced braking and can cause an accident.
Visually check that no damage is found on the
steering control levers, links or switches belonging
to the park brake. Do a standstill test and check
that there is sufficient braking action.
1. Make equal adjustments on the two park
brake controls. To make adjustments, remove
the rivet pins from the boot and slide the boot
up.
2. If the park brake position does not pass the
standstill test, or has needed maintenance,
it may need adjustment. The spring should
measure a compressed length of 1/2" (12.7
mm) shorter than the free length. Tighten the
nuts holding the brake spring if necessary.
3. To change the park brake action, tighten
the pivot bolt until the desired braking feel is
correct.

Tire Pressures

All tires must be at 15 psi / 103 kPa / 1 bar.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION DO NOT add
a tire liner or foam fill material to the rear tires.
Excessive loads created by foam filled tires will
cause premature failures.
Only use O.E.M. specified tires.
