Step 16:
Continue to fill both transaxles through
the expansion tanks,
until the “Full Cold” line is
reached
on the plastic expansion tank.
Step 17:
Re-install the expansion tank caps by
hand. Be careful to not overtighten. See above.
Proceed to Opening the Bypass Arm, (below).
After that, continue to the Purging Procedure.
OPENING THE BYPASS ARMS
Prior to opening the bypass arms, disengage the
MAGNATRAC brake lever. Lift up lever on the left
fender, and release off of bolt. See the picture
below.
Opening the transaxle bypass arms is an easy
process, but one must understand the parts in-
volved in order to accomplish this task. The pic-
ture on the top of the next column shows the parts
involved.
This process is also used if you want/need to
tow the machine at a max. of 2 mph, without
engine power. Follow Steps 1 through 3 before
towing the unit.
Keep in mind there is a
bypass arm for each
transaxle, so you’ll need to do this to both
sides.
Step 1:
Rotate the “Flapper” upward as shown in
the picture below.
Step 2:
Pull the “Rod” forward, allowing the “Rear
Collar” to come through the key hole slot in the
“Bracket.”
Your bypass arm assembly is now
“Open”
and should now look like the picture at
the top left of the next page.
