CARE AND MAINTENANCE

5000 SERIES REAR WHEELS:

The rear wheels of all 5000 Series models are of an "offset" center design to allow "reversed" installation for using snow chains or to gain increased stability when mowing on sloped ground.

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. All slopes require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.

WHEEL REVERSAL:

* Installation instructions marked with an * asterisk are particularly important.

1.Raise rear of mower and place suitable supports at the rear of the chassis.

2.Remove rear wheel lug nuts and rear wheels.

3.Reinstall rear wheels with valve stems inward.

4.* Install lug nuts with "flat" side of nut against wheel.

5.* Tighten lug nuts to a minimum torque factor of 50 ft. lbs.
