3.

Rotate the mounting rod fully upward toward the
dash panel to provide clearance for battery
removal (Refer to Figure 27).

4.

Pull downward on the bottom of the battery
holddown strap  to release it from the tab beneath
the battery tray.

5.

Loosen the hose clamp and pull the drain tube
from the battery.

6.

Lift the battery upward and remove from the left
side of the tractor.

Figure 27  

7.

Install the new battery from the left side of the
tractor and lower into the battery tray.

8.

Install the drain tube onto the battery and secure
with the hose clamp.

9.

After making sure the holddown is securely looped
around the tab on top of the pedestal, stretch the
battery holddown strap downward across the front
of the battery and loop around the tab below the
battery tray.

10. Rotate the mounting rod downward and insert

through the bottom of the hole in the bulkhead
mounting tab (Refer to Figure 26).

11. Install the wing nut onto the mounting rod, but do

not tighten until after the side panels are installed.

12. Connect the positive cable to the positive terminal

of the battery, then connect the negative cable to
the negative terminal.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

Test and, if necessary, recharge the battery after the
tractor has been stored for a period of time.

A voltmeter or load tester should read 12.6 volts
(DC) or higher across the battery terminals.

Charge the battery with a 12-volt battery charger at
MAXIMUM rate of 10 amps.

JUMP STARTING

WARNING

Failure to use this jump starting procedure
could cause sparking, which could result in an
explosion of either battery.

1.

Attach the first jumper cable from the positive
terminal of the good battery to the positive terminal
of the dead battery.

2.

Attach the second jumper cable from the negative
terminal of the good battery to the FRAME OF THE
UNIT WITH THE DEAD BATTERY.

TIRES

Keep the pneumatic tires properly inflated. Over-
inflation will cause operator discomfort. Under-inflation
will cause short tire life. 

Improperly inflated tires will also affect the leveling of
the mower deck and quality of cut.

Inflate the front and rear tires as shown in the following
table:

Tire Size

Pounds per Square Inch

Front Tires
15 x 6–6

14

Rear Tires
20 x 9–8

10

Always ensure that the tire valve caps are in place and
tightened securely to prevent loss of air and to protect
the valve core and stem.

Do not overload the tractor tires by mounting
equipment on the tractor which exceeds the load
capacity of the size of the tires on the tractor.
