1. Before proceeding with the installation, familiarize yourself with the Parts, and the illustrations of
the Universal Lawn Deck Adapter as shown in Figure 13.
2. Thoroughly clean the exposed area of your Mower Deck so that it may be easily marked.
3. Remove the Hinge Pin from your Mower Deck Mounting Bracket (Figure 14) and remove the Discharge
Chute, Springs, and related parts from your Mower Deck. Do not remove the Mounting Bracket. (See
Reference Line instruction below). Save these parts for future use should you decide to return your Lawn
Mower Deck to its original configuration.
