•Replace with a new bulb/socket assembly (Cub Cadet No. 725-3161A).

•Align the tabs of the new bulb/socket assembly with the notches of the reflector and insert the bulb.

•Turn the bulb/socket assembly clockwise to lock in place. Plug the wire harness into the socket, making sure the plug locking tabs lock onto the socket assembly.

TAIL LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT

Each tail light assembly has two light bulbs — a reverse indicator bulb (Cub Cadet no. 725-3263) and a tail light (Cub Cadet no. 725-3262). Access the back side of the tail lights from under the rear fender.

NOTE: Use caution when removing the tail light sockets from the reflector housings. The bulbs can be pulled from the sockets and dropped into the reflector housing, requiring removal of the reflector housing to retrieve the bulb.

Replace a tail light bulb as follows:

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

•Once aligned, carefully pull the light socket out of the tail light reflector.

•Pull the light bulb from the socket and replace with a like part.

•Align the tabs of the socket with the notches in the reflector and carefully insert the socket. Turn the socket fully clockwise to lock in place.

HAZARD BULB REPLACEMENT

Flashing hazard lights are installed on each side of the ROPS. Replace the bulbs as follows:

•Grasp the outer half of the light housing and both the front and rear lenses. Accessing the screws from the notches at the top and bottom of the outer housing, remove the two screws fastening the outer and inner housings together. See Figure 35.
