Exmark Lazer HP manual Install Drive Wheels, Check Tire Pressure, Install Motion Control Levers

CAUTION

POTENTIAL HAZARD

♦If the ignition is in the “ON” position there is potential for sparks and engagement of components.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

♦Sparks could cause an explosion or moving parts could accidentally engage causing personal injury.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

♦Be sure ignition switch is in the “OFF” position before charging the battery.

3.3.3Connect the negative battery cables.

NOTE: If the positive cable is also disconnected, connect the positive (red) cable and the red wire to the positive terminal on the battery first, then connect the negative (black) cable and white/white wire to the negative terminal on the battery (red wire and white/white wire are only on some units). Slip insulator boot over the positive terminal.

NOTE: If time does not permit charging the battery, or if charging equipment is not available, connect the negative battery cables and run the vehicle continuously for 20 to 30 minutes to sufficiently charge the battery.

3.4INSTALL DRIVE WHEELS.

3.4.1Mount drive wheels with the valve stem to the outside of the unit. Secure using four (4) 1/2-20 wheel nuts (installed on studs in hubs) for each wheel. Torque to 95 ft-lbs (128 NxM).

3.5CHECK TIRE PRESSURE.

3.5.1Check tire pressure in drive tires. Proper inflation pressure for tires is 13 psi (90 kPa). Adjust if necessary.

For units with Pneumatic Caster tires (with a valve stem): Check tire pressure in Caster tires. Proper inflation pressure for tires is 13 psi (90 kPa).

For units with Semi-Pneumatic Caster tires (without a valve stem): Caster tires do not need to be inflated.

3.6INSTALL MOTION CONTROL LEVERS.

3.6.1Loosen and remove the two (2) 3/8” x 1” bolts and spring disc washers which attach the motion control levers to the control arm shafts for shipping and the two (2) 3/8” x 1” bolts and spring disc washers which are screwed into the control arm shafts.

a)Install the left motion control lever onto the control arm shaft (See Figure 4) on the left side of the console. Place the lever (with the mounting plate towards the rear) on the outside of the control arm shaft and secure with the bolts and washers. Position the lever so the bolts are in the center of the slots on the lever mounting plate and tighten until snug. Repeat on opposite side of unit.

NOTE: There are two lever height options available. Place the levers in the top two holes to increase height of the levers, or in the bottom two holes to decrease the height of the levers.

If the levers do not align with each other, when in the neutral position, (See Figure

5)loosen the hardware and make the appropriate adjustment by sliding/tilting the lever(s) forward or backward until properly aligned and tighten hardware.
