Pivot Restrictor
The drum unit pivots to adjust to the terrain while cutting. The pivot restrictor keeps the mower from pivoting
too far and also secures it while in transport mode. Gather the parts shown in Figure 31 with two 19 mm
wrenches. Take care to face the head of the bolt out as the clearance with the handle is tight. Only 3 of the 4
washers are used.

Assemble as shown in Figure 32. The clamp handle should be tightened during transport to keep the drums
from pivoting down and possibly dragging. During mowing, the handle is loosened so that the mower pivots
freely within the range allowed by the slot in the restrictor plate.
Guard Installation
The front guard frame has 6 holes and a pin that slides into the tubing of the rear frame as shown.
