Once the deck is under the tractor,

move the deck lift handle to the lowest

mowing position.

NOTE:

To line the brackets up properly, it

may be necessary to place a small block of

wood under each side of the deck.

Hook the front deck lift rod onto the hanger

brackets on the front of the deck.

Pull the deck release pins outward and

maneuver the deck as necessary to align

the holes in the deck lift arms with the

pins. Refer to Figure 4-5.

When aligned, push each pin fully

inward through the lift arms to secure

the arms in the rear hanger bracket slots.

Make certain the ‘V’ belt is in the spindle

pulleys on the deck; then route the belt

rearward beneath the tractor frame,

above the transmission tube(s), to the

PTO pulley on the bottom of the engine.

Using the deck lift handle, raise the deck

to the position that provides the most

horizontal run of the belt between the

deck idler pulleys and the PTO pulley on

the bottom of the engine.

Make certain the belt is in the spindle

pulleys of the deck, and that the

backside of the belt is against both the

fixed and movable idler pulleys.

10.

Sitting behind the tractor, facing forward,

make certain the belt is not twisted; then

reach beneath the tractor to grasp the

belt and pull it toward the PTO pulley.

WARNING!

Use caution to avoid

pinching your fingers when

rolling the belt onto the PTO

pulley.

11.

Pull the right side of the belt rearward

and place the narrow V side of the belt

into the PTO pulley. See Figure 4-4.

12.

While holding the belt and pulley

together, rotate the pulley to the left (See

Figure 4-4). Continue holding and rotating

the pulley and belt until the belt is fully

rolled into the PTO pulley.

NOTE:

Before using the tractor double-

check the belt routing to make sure that

the belt has been routed properly.

tractor. Refer to Deck Removal.

NOTE:

Take note of the position of the

belt guards to ensure they are properly

re-installed.

Remove the belt from the spindle

pulleys.

Install the new belt around the spindle

pulleys as shown and reinstall the belt

covers. See Figure 4-8.

Figure 4-8

Place the belt around the idler pulleys

removed in step 3 with the “V” side

facing in. Once in place, reinstall all the

hardware and tighten the flange lock nut

to secure the assembly. See Figure 4-6.

Route the belt as shown in Figure 4-6

and then reinstall the deck. Refer to

“Deck Installation” on page 20.

Mower Blade Care

WARNING!

Before performing

any maintenance, place the PTO
switch in the “OFF” position,
engage the parking brake lever,
turn the ignition key to the “OFF”
position and remove the key from
the switch. Protect your hands by
using heavy gloves when handling
the blades. When servicing the
mower deck, be careful not to cut
yourself on the sharpened blades.

The cutting blades must be kept sharp at all

times. Sharpen the cutting edges of the blades

evenly so that the blades remain balanced and

the same angle of sharpness is maintained.
If the cutting edge of a blade has already been

sharpened many times, or if any metal separation

is present, it is recommended that new blades

be installed. New blades are available at your

authorized dealer.
The blades may be removed as follows.
1.

Remove the deck from beneath the

tractor, (refer to “Deck Removal” on page

20) then gently flip the deck over to

expose its underside.
