1. Disconnect throttle cable from engine.

 

2. Remove four (4) control lever bolts and remove upper control 

levers.

 

3. Remove engaging handle by removing bolt and nut under 

handle.

 

4. Remove the two (2) attach nuts on floor of body and two (2) 

sheet metal screws at the rear of body.

 

5. Disconnect the rear wiring loom from the body by lightly 

squeezing the Econo-Seal plug. This plug is located at the 

left rear of the body.

 

6. Note: Loosen bolts that hold safety switch (P/N 4079) mount 

plate and slide switch away from engaging rod. Tighten one 

bolt just enough to hold switch in this position  until body is 

reassembled.

 

7. Place height adjustment lever in vertical position and care-

fully lift body up and off of chassis.

 

8. Reverse the above procedure for assembly.

 

Note: With the mower deck in the engaged position slide 

the switch bracket toward the engag ing rod (P/N 6087-1) 

until the switch leaf just makes contact with the switch 

button. Tighten both bolts in switch bracket. With the  mower 

deck engaged, attempt to start engine in all cutting  height 

positions. If engine starts in any cutting height positio n 

readjust the switch. Disengage the mower deck  and start 

the engine in each cutting height position. If engine fails to 

start in any cutting height position readjust switch. With 

operator in normal mowing position engage mower deck 

and remove weight from  seat. The engine should die. 

Repeat this procedure in each cutting height position.

 

 

 

To adjust the drive chains, the body must be removed and 

shims added behind the transaxle. Loosen 4 bolts which 

hold the transaxle to the frame. Insert shims as needed for 

adjustment between transaxle and mount plates. When 

properly adjusted, the slack span at the mid -point of the 

chain should have a total possible movement perpendicular 

to the chain of about 9/16". Tighten the 4 bolts which  hold 

the transaxle to the frame. Replace chain when rollers 

become loose, chain breaks, or chain fails to operate pro -

perly.

 

 

1. Chains: Proper lubrication is important for effective 

roller chain operation. Use high quality lubricating oil (do 

not use grease or extra heavy oil) and apply drops of oil 

to the chain joints every 10-15 hours of operation.

 

2. Front Caster Assembly: Each caster assembly has a 

grease fitting located on the underside of the bearing. 

For best results, use any good multi-purpose  grease 

every 1 0 - 1 5  hours of operation.

 

3. All other Bearings: All other bearings on your mower 

are sealed and require no lubrication.

 

 

Correct tire pressure is essential to the correct operation of 

the machine. The correct pressure for the  drive tires is 8-10 

Ibs. The front tires should be inflated to 20-24 Ibs.  Lug nuts 

should be checked periodically.
