Attaching The Steering Wheel

The hardware for attaching the sterring wheel has been 
packed within the steering wheel, beneath the steering 
wheel cap. Carefully pry off the steering wheel cap and 
remove the hardware.

NOTE

: There are two different styles of steering wheel 

cap. See Figure 3. 

Styles vary by model.

1. 

With the wheels of the tractor pointing straight 
forward

, place the steering wheel over the steering 

shaft.

2.  Place the washer (with the cupped side down) over 

the steering shaft and secure with the hex bolt. See 
Figure 3. 

3.  Place the steering wheel cap over the center of the 

steering wheel and push downward until it “clicks” into 
place.

Gas and Oil Fill-up

The gasoline tank is located under the hood and has a 
capacity of three gallons. Do not overfill. 

WARNING: Use extreme care 
when handling gasoline. Gasoline 
is extremely flammable and the 
vapors are explosive. Never fuel 
machine indoors or while the 
engine is hot or running. Extin-
guish cigarettes, cigars, pipes, 
and other sources of ignition.

Service the engine with gasoline and oil as instructed in 
the separate Kohler Operator/Owner Manual packed with 
your tractor. Read instructions carefully.

IMPORTANT

: Your tractor is shipped with motor oil in the 

engine. However, you MUST check the oil level before 
operating. Be careful not to overfill.

Shipping Brace Removal

WARNING: Make sure the riding 
mower’s engine is off, remove the 
ignition key, and set the parking 
brake before removing the ship-
ping brace.

•  Locate the shipping brace, if present, and accompany-

ing warning tag found on the right side of the mower, 
between the discharge chute and the cutting deck. 
See Figure 4.

•  While holding the discharge chute with your left hand, 

remove the shipping brace with your right hand by 
grasping it between your thumb and index finger and 
rotating it clockwise.

WARNING

Make sure the riding 
mower’s engine is 
off, remove the igni-
tion key, and set the 
parking brake before 
removing the shipping 
brace.
