Mower is equipped with manually adjusted drive chain 
tension idlers, one for each chain at rear of mower. 

To adjust drive chains, tighten nut on chain ten-sioner 
L-rod until spring P/N 5133 is nearly compressed as 
shown. 

 

NEEDS ADJUSTMENT 

Inspection of the chains will show the need for adjustment 
when the spring P/N 5133 is free of tension. Inspect chains 
after each 10 to 12 hours of operation. Proper lubrication 
is important for effective roller chain operation. Use high 
quality lubricating oil or motorcycle chain lube. (Do not 
use grease or heavy oil). Apply drops of oil to chain joints 
after every 25-50 hours of operation. DO NOT 
LUBRICATE IF OPERATED IN HEAVY DUST OR SAND. 

Each caster assembly has a grease fitting on the under 
side of the bearing. Grease with a multipurpose grease 
once a year. All other bearings are sealed and require no 
lubrication. 

Correct tire pressure is important for correct operation of 
mower.  

Rear-drive tires: 8-12 Ibs. for 18x9.50-8 tires. 

12-14 Ibs. for 16x6.60-8 tires & 18x6.50 

Front tires      20-24 Ibs. 
Check lug nuts periodically for tightness. 

Keep all connections clean and tight.  

Wash with mild detergent.
