Lock the parking brake, set the transmission lever in "N"(Neutral) and the P i 0 clutch lever in the "OFF" position. Set Lift Control lever to "DOWN" and turn Lowering Speed Control knob fully counter-clockwise ("FAST"). This allows you to pull the rear lift arms down by hand and makes assem- bly easier.

Installing Mower Lift Plate to Tractor

2.Assemble Y-lift bracket to lift plate assembly. Raised flange on lift plate assembly will face rear of tractor. Insert Y-lift bracket so that fork of Y faces front of tractor.

3.Attach mower lift plate assembly to tractor, passing the two projecting stud bolts on the transmission housing through the holes in the lift plate flange. Slide on 2 spacers previously removed and hand tighten both 26 mm flange locknuts.

4.Reach beneath the mower lift plate assembly and carefully insert the four 12 mm x 32 mm bolts through holes in lift plate assembly and into threaded holes on bottom of transmission housing. Housing is made of aluminum, so start bolts by hand to guard against cross threading. Tighten to 7 kg-m (50 ft-lb).
