Tire Inflation

Lift the hood to expose the back side of the headlight assembly.

Pull both locking tabs away from light bulb and pull wire harness away. See Figure 17.

Remove the light bulb from the reflector by turning counterclock- wise. The light bulb will be free of the reflector when the notches in thereflector and the tabs on the bulb are aligned.

Replace light bulb with like part.

Align the tabs on the light bulb and the notches in the reflector and insert light bulb.

Turn light bulb clockwise to lock in place. Connect wire harness and make sure that the locking tabs are seated on the light bulb.

Tire Inflation

Keep the pneumatic tires properly inflated. Over-inflation will cause operator discomfort. Under-inflation will cause short tire life.

Improperly inflated tires will also affect the level of the mower deck and quality of cut.

See the tire side wall for proper inflation range.

Always ensure that the tire valve caps are in place and tightened securely to prevent loss of air and to protect the valve core and stem.

Do not overload the tractor tires by mounting equipment on the tractor which exceeds the load capacity of the size of the tires on the tractor.

Tail Light Bulb Replacement

Each tail light assembly has two lightbulbs. Access the back side of the tail lights from under the rear fender.

NOTE: Because of the close proximity of the fuel tank, extreme caution should be taken when removing the tail light sockets from the reflector housings. The bulbs can be pulled from the sockets and dropped into the reflector housing, which will then require removal of the reflector housing to retrieve the bulb.

To replace a light bulb:

• Turn the light bulb socket counterclockwise to align the tabs on the socket with the notches in the tail light reflector.

Once aligned pull light socket out of the tail light reflector.

Pull the light bulb from the socket.

Replace light bulbs with like part.

Align the tabs of the socket with the notches in the reflector and carefully insert the socket.

Turn socket clockwise to lock in place. Make sure the socket is locked securely in place.
