The warning system in this manual identifies

potential hazards and has special safety messages that

help you and others avoid personal injury, even death.

DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION are signal

words used to identify the level of hazard. However,

regardless of the hazard, be extremely careful.

DANGER signals an extreme hazard that will cause

serious injury or death if the recommended

precautions are not followed.

WARNING signals a hazard that may cause serious

injury or death if the recommended precautions are

not followed.

CAUTION signals a hazard that may cause minor or

moderate injury if the recommended precautions are

not followed.

Two other words are also used to highlight

information. “Important” calls attention to special

mechanical information and “Note” emphasizes

general information worthy of special attention.

The left and right side of the machine is determined

by sitting on the seat in the normal operator’s

position.

POTENTIAL

HAZARD

•Without the discharge chute or the

complete grass catcher assembly mounted

in place, you and others are exposed to

blade contact and thrown debris.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

•Contact with rotating mower blade(s) and

thrown debris will cause injury or death.

HOW TO AV

OID THE HAZARD

•

NEVER r

emove the discharge chute from

the mower because the discharge chute

routes material down toward the turf. If

the discharge chute is ever damaged,

replace it immediately. Never put your

hands or feet under the mower.

•Never try to clear the discharge area or

mower blades unless you move the power

take off (PTO) to “OFF” and turn the

ignition key to “STOP.” Also remove the

ignition key and pull the wire(s) off the

spark plug(s).

Mower Belt Routing

1. Route the mower belt as shown in Fig. 2. Be

sure to install the belt on the lower mower deck

pulley.

Installing

the Mower

Initial Preparation

The mower is most easily installed when done on a

level concrete surface. Rougher dirt or lawn surfaces

make installation more difficult.

1. Position the tractor and mower side by side, with

the mower on the right–hand side of the tractor.

2. Set the parking brake, raise the attachment lift,

and turn the ignition key to “STOP” to stop the

engine. Remove the ignition key.

3. If you have previously had a snowthrower, blade

or tiller attached to the attachment lift, remove

the two clevis pins on each side of the

attachment lift (Fig. 3).

m–3433

4. Attach the pulley box if it is not already on the

tractor. Make sure the latches on the tractor’s

front Attach–A–Maticare open (Fig. 4). Then

slide the pulley box into the Attach–A–Matic

latches and seat it. Close the latches.

mower’s mounting brackets, using the

attachment lift and your hand on the right front

adjustable mower wheel bracket (Fig. 7),

position the mower so its attachment bar fits into

the mid Attach–A–Maticmount.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

•The “scissor” formed by the mower

mounting brackets and the attachment lift

arm is dangerous.

the mower parts and the tractor and be

injured.

HOW TO AV

OID THE HAZARD
