WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM
■
When using weight transfer system, correct
counterweight must be used to maintain stability.
See counterweight chart Figure 4 or contact dealer.
The weight transfer is designed to place an additional
load on the drive wheels, providing additional traction.
1. Attach mower to power unit and set to desired
cutting height.
2. Torque bolt on both sides to 35 lbs-in.
NOTE: Counterweight is needed to provide adequate
stability. Refer to the chart to determine your power
unit/mower combination, and the amount of counter-
weight required.
Counterweights are not required when power unit is
equipped with a grass catcher system.
Figure 4 . Counterweight Requirement Chart
* - For additional weight use two 73683 counterweights
and one 78025 counterweight cover mounted behind
the engine. See page 44 for parts list and diagram.

Do not tow a trailer over 200 lbs. Do not tow a
trailer or add power unit ballast with a combined
weight over 200 lbs. Too much weight can cause
loss of traction or stability on a slope. It can also
reduce parking brake ability. Too much weight will
shorten the hydraulic system life. Never tow a
trailer with a grass collection system attached to
the power unit.
