TO REMOVE THE MOWER

or staples.

reach the deck lift pedal and safely operate the
mower. See "Service and Adjustment" Section
of this manual.
• Remove protective wrap from the seat.
• Remove the three prong knobs and
washers from the seat and place in the
storage area in the right side console.

and washers, insert it thru the seat pan
slot and into the corresponding threaded
hole in the seat bottom.

• Tighten the three prong knobs in the
approximate position desired for the
seat.

switch.
Adjustments may be required to position the
seat in the desired position. Refer to the
"Service and Adjustment" section of this
