MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

To avoid deck damage, the anti-scalp rollers must not be adjusted to support the deck.

Anti-scalp Rollers

 

Anti-scalp rollers are properly adjusted when they are

 

just slightly off of the ground when the deck is at the

 

desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti-

 

scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position

 

to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions.

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

 

Adjust anti-scalp rollers with the mower on a

 

flat level surface.

 

The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three positions:

 

• Upper position 1½ to 2½" (38 to 64 mm) grass

 

• Middle position 2½" to 4" (64 to 102 mm) grass

 

• Lower position 4" to 6" (102 to 128 mm) grass.

 

The rollers should be approximately ¼" (6.5 mm) from

 

ground. Do not adjust the rollers to support the deck.

Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate freely. If wheels do not rotate freely take the unit to your dealer for service.

Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the warranty.

2.Pull the wheel out of the yoke and take care of the spacers.

3.Install in reverse order. Tighten caster bolt.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

DO NOT add any type of tire liner or foam fill material to the tires. Excessive loads created by foam filled tires will cause premature failures.

Only use O.E.M. specified tires.
