Checking the Parking Brake

Visually check that no damage is found on the lever, links, or switch belonging to the parking brake. Perform a test drive and check that there is sufficient braking action.

To adjust the parking brake, contact the Yazoo/Kees service workshop.

WARNING!

Faulty adjustment can cause an accident.

Checking the V-belts

Deck belt

Check every 100 hours of operation. Check for severe cracking and large nicks.

NOTE: The belt will show some small cracks in normal operation.

To replace belt lower the deck to its lowest position. Remove the foot plate and belt shields.

Use a ratchet with a 9/16” socket on the spring idler bolt to relieve the tension on the belt. Slide the belt off of pulley and remove the belt.

Reverse the procedure for installation. See the decal on the top of deck for belt routing information.

After installation is complete check the belt for twists.
