Make sure the2. valve stem (B) is to the outside of the

tractor. Slide the front wheel (A) on the spindle (C).

Fasten each front wheel with3. washer (D), washer (G)

and cotter pin (E). Bend the ends of the cotter pin apart

to keep the front wheel on the spindle.

After the front wheels are installed, lift the tractor from4.

the support. Roll the tractor off of the container.

If your tractor has5. hub caps (F), install the hub caps.

Make sure the washers hold the hub caps in place.

Maintenance Free Battery

IMPORTANT: Before you attach the battery cables to the

battery, check the battery date. The battery date tells if the

battery must be charged.

(Figure 7) Check the top of the1. battery (A) for the

location of the battery date.

If the2. battery (A) is put into service before the battery

date, the battery cables can be attached without

charging the battery (A). See “Install The Battery

Cables”.

If the3. battery (A) is put into service after the battery

date, the battery (A) must be charged. See “Charge The

Battery”.

Charge The Battery (Figure 7)

WARNING: When you charge the battery, do not

smoke. Keep the battery away from any sparks. The

fumes from the battery acid can cause an

explosion.

Remove the1. battery (A) and battery tray (C).

Remove the protective cap from the battery terminal.2.

Use a 12 volt battery charger to charge the3. battery (A).

Install The Battery Cables (Figure 7)

WARNING: To prevent sparks, fasten the red cable

to the positive (+) terminal before you connect the

black cable.

Remove the protective cap from the battery terminal.1.

Slide the2. terminal cover (B) onto the red cable (E).

Fasten the red cable (E) to the positive (+) terminal

Important! Before You Start Mowing

Check the engine oil.t

Fill the fuel tank with petrol.t

Check the air pressure of the tires.t

Check the level of the mower housing.t

Attach the battery cables.t

Check Tire Pressure

Check the air pressure in the tires. Tires with too much air

pressure will cause the unit to ride rough. Also, the wrong

air pressure will keep the mower housing from cutting level.

The correct air pressure is: Front Tires 0,97 BAR (14 PSI),

Rear Tires 0,69 BAR (10 PSI). The tires were over inflated

for shipment.

Prepare The Engine

NOTE: The engine was shipped from the factory filled with

oil. Check the level of the oil. Add oil as needed.

See the engine manufacturer’s instructions for the type

of petrol and oil to use. Before you use the unit, read the

information on safety, operation, maintenance, and storage.

WARNING: Follow the engine manufacturer’s

instructions for the type of petrol and oil to use.

Always use a safety petrol container. Do not smoke

when adding petrol to the engine. When inside an

enclosure, do not fill with petrol. Before you add

petrol, stop the engine. Let the engine cool for

several minutes.
