Adjusting the Parking Brake
Service Interval: Every 500 hours
Check to make sure brake is adjusted properly. This
procedure must be followed after the first 100 hours
or when a brake component has been removed or
replaced.
1. Drive the machine onto a level surface.
2. Disengage the blade control switch (PTO), move
the motion control levers to the neutral locked
position and set the parking brake.
3. Stop the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop,
and remove the key.
4. Setup the machine to be pushed by hand (see
Drive Wheel Release Valves
in the Operation
section).
5. Raise the back of the machine up and support the
machine with jack stands.
CAUTION
Raising the mower deck for service or
maintenance relying solely on mechanical
or hydraulic jacks could be dangerous. The
mechanical or hydraulic jacks may not be
enough support or may malfunction allowing
the unit to fall, which could cause injury.
Do Not rely solely on mechanical or hydraulic
jacks for support. Use adequate jack stands
or equivalent support.
6. Engage/disengage the brake and check each drive
tire to make sure each brake engages/disengages.
7. If adjustment is necessary, disengage the park
brake. Remove cotter pin from the brake linkage
shaft (see Figure 69).
