*- For additional weight use two 73683 counterweights and one 78025 counterweight cover mounted behind the engine. See page 44 for parts list and diagram.

„Do not tow a trailer over 200 lbs. Do not tow a trailer or add power unit ballast with a combined weight over 200 lbs. Too much weight can cause loss of traction or stability on a slope. It can also reduce parking brake ability. Too much weight will shorten the hydraulic system life. Never tow a trailer with a grass collection system attached to the power unit.
