HYDRO-DRIVE WALK BEHIND MOWER
17
ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove top boards of crate and all loose
items from inside. Remove outside frame
work so that the mower is setting on the
pallet.
2. Use this step only for models with a fixed
deck. Using 6 -
3/8” X 1” bolts (3 – for each
caster) and 6 -
3/8” Whiz Lock nuts, bolt the
casters into place so that the whiz Lock nuts
are on the inside of deck.
3. Use this step only for models with a 36"
floating deck. Using 4 - M8 X 25 bolts and
4- M8 Nylok nuts, secure the deck
discharge deflector to the hinge mechanism.
4. Use this step only for models with a 48"
floating deck. Assemble the discharge
deflector to the deck using the hardware
that is attached to the components.
5. Place the fuel tank on the mounting platform
so that the vent tube on the filler neck is in
front. Secure with nylon hold down straps,
pulling tension on the buckles until tight.
6. Using the remaining 4 -
3/8” X 1” bolts and
the 4 -
3/8” Nylok nuts, attach the
handlebar, three mounting positions are
available and have been provided to
ensure operator comfort. Connect the wire
harness to the plug of the engine harness.
Route the throttle and choke cables around
the left hand side of the engine and attach
to the engine control plate, adjust for proper
operation. Using the supplied metal cable
clips and plastic ties, secure the wire
harness and control cables to handlebar as
necessary.
Note - Because the handlebar can be secured
in three different positions the following
adjustment procedure must be carried out each
time the handlebar position is changed. Use
the NOMENCLATURE guide in the back of this
manual to familiarize yourself with the terms.
7. Temporarily lift the rear of the mower so that
both wheels may be rotated freely. Rotate
each wheel by hand in a back and forth
motion to ensure that the brake pawl of
each wheel is fully engaged with the cog
wheel. Place the park brake lever in the on
(up) position and rotate the brake lever
located directly behind the left wheel motor
in a counterclockwise direction until a
significant resistance is encountered, this is
the point at which the brakes begin to
release. Adjust the position of the brake rod
swivel so that it can be easily inserted into
the hole of the brake lever, install the
washer and secure with the hairpin cotter
pin.
8. Test the park brake function by moving the
park brake lever to the off (down) position
and ensure that both wheels rotate freely.
Lower the mower so that the drive wheels
are resting securely on the pallet.
9. Attach the two steering control rods to the
pumps using 2 - 5/16" X 1" bolts, flat
washers, and Nylok nuts as shown in Fig. 1.
