1. Safely drain the gasoline from the fuel tank.
2. Disconnect the seat switch. See Figure 2.3.
NOTE: On the GTX2154LE, it will be necessary to
cut the wire tie that holds the seat switch
connector to the seat frame.
NOTE: When reconnecting the seat switch plug on
the GTX2154LE, it must be wire tied back
together and attached to the seat frame.
Failure to do this can cause the connector to
get caught in the seat bracket and rip the
wires out of the seat. If this happens, the
tractor will shut down when the brake is
released and the whole seat must be
replaced.
3. Push the barbed fastener on the seat switch har-
ness out of the hole in the fender.
4. Remove the four socket headed cap screws that
hold the seat tracks to the fender using a T-40 torx
driver. See Figure 2.4.
