2-10 Boot To Mower Deck Installation
To mount the boot plates P#(B0538) to the boot
P#(E1039) use (2) 3/8”-16 x 1” carriage bolts P#(K1182)
and (2) 3/8”-16 nyloc nuts P#(K1216). Make certain that
when bolting the boot and boot plate together, that the
head of the bolt is placed from the inside of the boot.
This will prevent grass from collecting on the bolts. To
install the boot plates and boot to the tractor, lift boot
plate assembly to a 45 degree angle and slide boot
plates under the deflector shield hinges on each side.
See Figure 2-10a thru 2-10b.
