MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
5. To increase freeplay, loosen both the locknuts and turn the
turnbuckle to lengthen the clutch rod.
6. If adjustments fail to bring the freeplay to within 25 mm (1 inch)
the drive belt may need to be replaced (Page 90).
Tires and Wheels Tires should be kept at the
proper inflation pressure
and periodically inspected
for tread wear or damage.
Keeping the tire treads
clean and free of mud and
other debris improves
traction and steering
control.
Tire pressure:
Front: 98 kPa (14 psi)
Rear: 69 kPa (10 psi)
Do not attempt to remove a wheel unless the riding mower
is on firm, level ground and you have the equipment and
knowledge to do so properly. Circlip pliers are required to
remove and install any wheel. Block the grounded wheels
securely.
