Replacing the Caster Wheel
Fork Bushings
The caster wheel forks are mounted in bushings pressed
into the top and bottom of the carrier frame mounting
tubes. To check the bushings, move the caster forks back
and forth and side-to-side. If a caster fork is loose, the
bushings are worn and must be replaced.
1. Raise the cutting unit so the caster wheels are off the
floor, then block up the front of the mower with jack
stands.
2. Remove the locking pin and spacer(s) from the top of
the caster wheel fork (Fig. 85).
