Note: If the wheels are already installed, refer to Checking

the Tire Pressure (below).

1. Install the shim washers onto the axle.

2. Install the wheel onto the axle with the valve stem

facing out.

3. Slide the flat washer onto the axle. Insert the cotter pin

through the axle and bend the ends of the pin apart

(Fig. 1). If the cotter pin does not fit, remove the shim

washer(s) as required.

bearing seal area.

Installing the Rear Wheels

1. Grease the axle to prevent corrosion.

2. Slide a flat washer, spacer, and shim washer onto the

axle (Fig. 2).

Checking the Tire Pressure

Check the front and rear tires for proper inflation. Refer to

Tire Pressure in the Operator’s Manual for the

recommended inflation pressure.

Installing the Steering Wheel

1. Turn the front wheels so that they are facing straight

ahead.

2. Slide the steering wheel over the steering shaft. Line up

the hole in the steering wheel with the hole in the shaft

(Fig. 3). From the seat you should be able to read the

brand logo on the steering wheel.

3. To align the holes, insert a punch or long nail partially

through the holes in the steering wheel and shaft. Then

insert the spirol pin into the hole on the opposite side.

4. Using a hammer, drive the spirol pin in until it is flush

with the outside of the steering wheel (Fig. 3).

Installing the Seat

Note: If the seat is already installed, proceed to Activating

the Battery, page 3.

1. Insert the seat switch wire cable through the hole in the

seat base (Fig. 4).

2. Position the seat onto the seat base by inserting the two

shoulder bolts through the key hole openings at the end

of both slots (Fig. 4).

3. Thread the knob and flat washer through the slot and

into the rear center hole in the seat (Fig. 4). Adjust the

seat and tighten the knob.

4. Push the seat switch connector fully into the wire

harness connector (Fig. 4).

5. Secure the seat switch wire cable to the seat base with

the wire clip (Fig. 4).

Activating the Battery

Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories

contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals

known to the State of California to cause cancer

and reproductive harm. Wash hands after

handling.

Warning

Bulk electrolyte with 1.260 specific gravity must be

purchased from a local battery supply outlet.

Important Never fill the battery with electrolyte while

the battery is installed in the tractor. Electrolyte could be

spilled on other parts and cause corrosion.

1. Remove the battery and battery box from the tractor;

refer to the Operator’s Manual, Removing the Battery.

Danger

Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which is a

deadly poison and causes severe burns.

•Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with

skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to

shield your eyes and robber gloves to protect

your hands.

•Fill the battery where clean water is always

available for flushing the skin.

•Follow all instructions and comply with all

safety messages on the electrolyte container.

2. Remove the vent caps from the battery. Slowly pour

electrolyte into each battery cell until the electrolyte

level is up to the Upper line on the battery case (Fig. 5).

Important Do not overfill the battery because

electrolyte (sulfuric acid) can cause severe corrosion and

damage to the chassis.

2. Upper line 3. Lower line

3. Wait five to ten minutes after filling the battery cells.

Add electrolyte, if necessary, until the electrolyte level

is up to the Upper line (Fig. 5) on the battery case.

4. Reinstall the battery vent caps.

5. Charge the battery for 1 hour at 25 to 30 amps or 6

hours at 4 to 6 amps (Fig. 6). Do not overcharge the

battery.

Charging the battery produces gasses that can

explode.

Never smoke near the battery and keep sparks and

flames away from battery.

Warning

6. When the battery is fully charged, unplug the charger

from the electrical outlet, then disconnect the charger

leads from the battery posts (Fig. 6).

7. Install the battery and battery box in the tractor and

connect the battery cables; refer to the Operator’s

Manual, Installing the Battery.

Checking the Oil Level

The tractor is shipped from the factory with oil in the

engine crankcase; however, it may be necessary to add oil.

Refer to the Operator’s Manual, Engine Oil Specifications,

for oil type, viscosity, and crankcase capacity. Add only

enough oil to raise the level to the Full mark on the

dipstick.

Lubricating the Tractor

Make sure all of the necessary points on the tractor are

lubricated; refer to Greasing and Lubrication in the

Operator’s Manual.

Checking the Safety System

Refer to the Operator’s Manual, Testing the Safety System.

Purging the Hydro Transaxle

During shipping and handling air can be introduced into the

hydro transaxle. To achieve proper performance, all trapped

air must be removed.

1. Place the tractor on a flat, level surface.

2. Place the drive control in the Push position (Fig. 7).

1. Operate position 2. Push position

3. Run the engine at a low idle and move the traction

control pedal forward for five seconds then reverse for

five seconds. Repeat three times.

4. Place the drive control in the Operate position (Fig. 7).

Drive the tractor forward then reverse approximately

five feet. Repeat three times.

Checking the Hydro Neutral

Position

Ensure that the neutral position is set properly. An

adjustment is required if the tractor moves without the

traction control pedal being depressed.

1. Run the engine at a low idle and move the traction

control pedal forward, then release. Move the traction

control pedal to reverse, then release. If the tractor

moves, proceed as follows:

2. Run the tractor for 5 to 10 minutes to warm the

transaxle.

3. Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake, stop the

engine, and remove the ignition key.

4. Raise the right rear wheel off of the ground and support

it with a jack stand. Make sure that the left rear wheel

stays on the ground.

Danger

Mechanical or hydraulic jacks may fail to support

the machine and cause a serious injury.

•Use jack stands when supporting the machine.

•Do not use hydraulic jacks.

Note: To gain access to the adjusting puck (Fig. 8), it may

be necessary to remove the tire.

5. Loosen the adjusting puck screw (Fig. 8).

6. Start the engine and run it at full throttle.

7. Rotate the adjusting puck (Fig. 8) in both directions

until you find the midpoint where the axle no longer

rotates forward or reverse.

8. Hold the puck with an adjustable wrench so that it will

not move; then tighten and torque the adjusting puck

screw to 21 to 27 ft.-lb. (28 to 36 N⋅m).

9. Stop the engine and remove the ignition key. Lower the

tractor from the jack stand.

10.Check the adjustment again by repeating step 1.

Checking the Traction Control

Pedal

The traction control pedal can be adjusted for optimum

forward and reverse speeds.

1. Loosen the screws below the right footrest. Slide the

pedal forward for faster reverse speed or backward for

faster forward speed (Fig. 9).

2. Tighten the screws and recheck the traction control

pedal.
