SET-UP AND ASSEMBLY

DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

Assembly of this mower is the responsibilityof the dealer. The mower should be deliveredto the owner completely assembled, lubricated and adjusted for normal mowing conditions.

Using these instructions, set mower up as re- ceived from the factory. Complete Check Lists on Page 10 when set-up is complete.

You may install the "60 mower with the FL6555 sub frame installed. The front loader must be removed from the sub frame. If you also have a BH6575 Back Hoe, both the back hoe and its sub frame must be removed. The adjustment of the lift rod is different from the standard installation. These differences are explained in the appropriate sections. Follow these procedures to avoid damage to deck and linkage.

The mower is shipped partially assembled. Assembly will be easier if cqmponents are aligned and loosely assembled before tightening hard- ware. Recommended torque values for hardware, are included in the assembly instructions.

Select a suitable working area. Open parts boxes and lay out parts and hardware to make location easy. Refer to illustrations,accompanying text, parts lists and exploded view drawings.

For all pins, shafts and other bearing surfaces, lubricate bearing area with a lithium based grease of #2 consistency with a MOLY (molybdenum disulfide) additive before installing. The manual will also indicate when grease is necessary. .

Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hands, hearing and head.

Before working underneath, raise mower, install transport lock and block mower securely. Hydraulic system leak down and failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equipment to drop.

Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjust-

ments, service or maintenance.
