ASSEMBLY AND SETUP
3. TIRE PRESSURE
Set tire pressure to 14lb/in
2
(1.0 kg/cm
2
). Tires are overinflated for shipping.
4. TRACTION LEVERS
a) Loosen bolt A and remove bolt B.
b) Rotate traction lever D into position and secure
with bolts A and B. Repeat for the other lever.
c) Tighten all fasteners.
d) Sit on the machine. Levers may be adjusted in
bracket C for a more comfortable reach, or
moved to upper set of holes for a better operator
fit.
5. DECK LEVELING
a) Park the machine on a smooth, level surface.
Raise the deck to the transport position.
Remove pin D.
b) Lower the deck onto a set of equal height blocks
A under the rear corners of the deck. Place
another set of blocks B under the front of the
deck so that the deck top is pitched forward 1/8”.
Continue running the actuator in the “DOWN”
direction, so there is plenty of float for the
actuator E.
NOTE: The front and rear of the deck are at different
heights.
c) Measure the height of the blade cutting edge
above the ground. Install pin D in the hole
corresponding to the blade height.
d) Loosen the jam nuts on the height of cut clips
and adjusting screws C. Turn the adjusting
screws C until the play is taken out of the chains
at all four corners. Tighten the jam nuts against
the clips and at the adjusting screws.
