Gearbox Installation
NOTE: Gearbox is heavy: do not attempt to move with-
out mechanical assistance.
1. Set gearbox on gearbox stand and fasten with
bolts and nuts. Torque bolts to 175 lbs.-ft. (237 N-
m).
2. Attach drive sheave to output shaft. Secure using
castle nut and hardware previously removed.
3. Attach Gearbox stand to mower using four flanged
lock nuts.
DRIVE SHEAVE INSTALLATION
1. When gear stand is installed on mower, dimension
A (from the top of the mower deck to the center line
of the drive pulley) must be 2-7/16" (61.913 mm)
[±1/32" (±0.794 mm)]. This is a critical dimension
and must be carefully adjusted for proper belt life.
Add or subtract shim washers under idler pulley to
align with drive pulley.
2. Tighten gear stand hardware.
3. Fill gearbox half full with SAE 80W or 90W gear
lube.
4. Check level after waiting five minutes to permit
lube to work through bearings. Add lube, if neces-
sary, until gearbox is half full.
5. Replace driveline shield. Attach driveline to gear-
box.
