Your mower is only as safe as the operator! Operator carelessness or error may result

in serious bodily injury. Improper maintenance of the machine may also result in injury.

Please read and follow these instructions on Safe Operation and be certain that anyone

using this mower fully understands and follows these instructions.

1. Familiarize yourself with the controls

and know how to stop this mower.

2. Inspect your work area carefully.

Remove debris from the area to be cut.

Keep all bystanders away from the

mowing area.

3. Avoid contact with moving parts. Keep

hands and feet clear of the mower deck

and all moving parts.

4. Never direct the discharge of material

toward bystanders nor allow anyone

near the machine while in operation.

5. Never tamper with safety devices or

guards. If a guard or safety device is

damaged or removed, replace it before

operating the mower.

6. Handle gasoline carefully: use an

approved gasoline container; fill the fuel

tank to within 1" from the neck with good

quality leaded or unleaded gasoline.

Operator must wear proper shoes and

clothing, which may also include safety

glasses and ear protection.

7. Mow only during daylight hours or under

Self-Adjusting

1. Remove inner parts box and handle from

crate. Remove outside frame work so

that the mower is setting on the pallet.

2. On a 36" mower, use 3 – 5/16" X 1 3/4"

bolts and 3 – 5/16" whizlocks and bolt the

bumper into place. (On the 48" there are

4 - bumper bolts required.)The whizlocks

should go to the inside of the deck.

When assembling a 48" mower, make

sure that the bumper is flush with the

deck on both ends of the bumper.

3. Using 6 – 3/8" X 1" bolts (3 – used for

each caster) and 6 – 3/8" whizlock nuts,

bolt the casters into place. Position

whizlock nuts to the inside of the deck.

4. Using 2 – 5/16" X 1" bolts with 2 – 5/16"

flat washers and 2 – 15/16" nyloc nuts,

take the shifter lever with grip and bolt

onto the top side of the shifter bracket on

the transmission. Place the 5/16" flat

washers on the slotted hole side of the

shifter bracket under the 5/16" nut.

Position the shift lever so that it slides

freely along the top side of the shifter

plate but still hits the stop for reverse.

5. Mount the gas tank using the 2 – nylon

hold down straps, pulling tension on the

buckles until secure. Attach the quick

coupler, on the end of the fuel line, to the

bottom of the tank. (See Fig. 1)

6. Using the remaining 4 - 3/8" X 1" bolts

and the 4 – 3/8" nyloc nuts, bolt the

7. Using drive rods provided, turn them into

the 5/16" swivel located in the left and

right hand idler engagement bracket.

Adjust the rods so that there is

approximately 1/4" to 3/8" between the

rod and the bottom of the thumb latch.

Rods should be locked in place by using

4 – hair pin cotters and by placing a 5/

16" flat washer to be inside of the drive

handle between the drive lever and hair

pin cotter. (See fig.2)

8. With the thumb latches locked in the

neutral position, adjust the brake swivel

until you feel a slight resistance when

hooking it back to the idler assembly.

Remember with thumb locks in the

neutral position, you should be able to

free wheel the machine. When the

thumb locks are rotated all the way to the

lock position, the brake should lock the

wheel. At this time, you may also hook

up the blade engagement rod, adjusting

the length of the rod so the bell crank will

not bottom out in the slot.

9. At this point, oil and fuel engine. Make

sure that the air pressures in the rear

tires are equal at (12 psi). Adjust the

front tire pressures to (20 psi). Your

mower is now ready for use.

Final Check / Adjustment

1. Adjust the brake control rod to obtain

“free wheeling” with the drive levers in

the neutral position and positive braking

when the drive levers are squeezed close

to the handle grips. Shorten the effective

length of the brake rod to increase

braking.

2. Check air pressure in drive wheels (12

psi) and caster wheels (20psi). This is

critical for appropriate mower tracking.

3. Check for proper belt tension (see belt

tension guide).

Keep a 1/8" to 1/4" clearance between

belt guides and belts. Be sure the drive

control rod is properly adjusted in the

thumb latch. (See Fig 2.)

3. After a 10 hour “Break-In” period go

through steps 1 thru 3.

4. Proper adjustments must be maintained

to insure safe, trouble free, long life

operation of the mower. After completing

the foregoing instructions and

recommended procedures you are ready

to put the mower into operation.

 CAUTION:

Excessive belt tension may cause damage!!

blades.

7. Shift the transmission to the desired gear

(1 thru 4) for mowing, 5th gear is for

transport only.

8. Squeeze the control levers and push

forward on the thumb latches to unlock

the levers. Slowly release control levers

to engage the drive wheels.

9. In a normal mode the mower will travel in

a straight line. To turn; squeeze the drive

turn.

10. To STOP forward motion, squeeze both

drive levers, lock thumb latches and shift

the transmission to neutral.

11. This unit is equipped with “Operator

When the operator leaves the operator

position removing both hands from the

“Operator Presence Control” levers it will

cause the engine to shutdown.

THIS FEATURE IS FOR YOUR SAFETY!

 WARNING:

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PREVIOUS

INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN

SEVERE BODILYINJURY OR

MECHANICAL FAILURE.

 CAUTION:
