Deck lift shaft assembly bushings
The deck lift shaft bushings may need replacement at some point during the life of the mower. These bushings
can be replaced without removing the deck lift shaft assembly. To replace the bushings:
1. Remove the deck following the steps described at the
beginning of this chapter.
2. Remove the E-ring that retains the lift shaft bushing.
See Figure 8.34.
3. Slide the old bushing out.
4. Slide the new bushing in.
5. Install the E-ring that retains the bushing.
6. Repeat steps 2 - 6 on the opposite side.
7. Install the deck.
8. Test drive the tractor in a safe area before returning
to service.
NOTE: The friction surface of the bushing may be lubri-
cated with dry lubricant such as PTFE or graphite.
Ease will attract dust and will accelerate bushing
wear.
