ZT 200
Series
Parking brake assembly (fuel tank, tire and deck
not shown for clarity - brake in ON position).
PARKING BRAKE
Start with parking brake N in the OFF position.
1. Adjust the parking brake rod to provide a distance
of 14-3/16” between pin K and pin L
2. Disconnect one end of rods M (at brakes on both
sides of the machine).
3. Move the parking brake lever to the ON position.
4. Adjust rods M on each brake to be 3/4” short of
connecting to the spring when all the slack is
taken out of the brake linkage and brake lever N.
5. Move the parking brake to the OFF position and
reconnect rods M.
This adjustment will cause the brake springs to
stretch 3/4” when the brake is in the ON position to
provide the correct parking brake force without
overloading the brake.
DECK LEVELING AND
COUNTERBALANCE SPRINGS
– Side Discharge: The front of a side discharge
deck should be slightly lower than the rear.
– Mulching: The front of a mulching deck should
be slightly higher than the rear.
To level deck:
1. Park the machine on a smooth, level surface.
The deck may be set to any cutting height.
2. Place a level on the deck, from front to rear. If the
level is too short to reach all the way from front to
rear, lay a straight edge on the deck first, then
place the level on the straight edge.
3. Lay a 1/8" spacer beneath the front of the level
for the side discharge and under the rear for
mulching.
4. Adjust nuts M until the level's bubble is centered.
Repeat for the other side of the deck.
Adjust Counterbalance springs:
Raise the cutterdeck all the way. Adjust the spring with nut N to a length of 13-1/4 inches (335 mm). The
springs may be tightened or loosened from this point according to personal preference.
