2-3 Attaching The Lift Handle To The Aluminum Grass Container

The various parts of the handle assembly P#(A0273) must be attached to the container frame. (Figure 4) shows the orientation and location of the components. Slide the lift handle into the slot in the handle mount bracket P#(B1730) on the grass container. It may be necessary to remove the handle grip P#(J0522) to allow the handle to fit through the slot.

Before attaching the handle, hook one end of the spring P#(J0176) into the hole on the underside of the handle. Hook the other end of the spring into the open hole in the handle mount bracket. Fasten the handle to the grass container frame by using (1) 3/8”-16 x 2” HHCS P#(K1208) and (2) 3/8”-16 flange nuts P#(K1215). At this point the handle can pivot back and forth in the slot of the handle mount bracket. With the handle in place, fasten the ball joint P#(K1442), (Figure 5) to the end of the latch rod P#(A0260). Tighten to approximately half way down the threads of the latch rod. Slide the ball joint into the hole on the latch hook P#(B1529). Use (1) 5/16”- 24 hex nut P#(K1444) and (1) 5/16” lock washer P#(K0043) to fasten the ball joint to the latch hook. Attach the opposite end of the latch rod into the handle. Fasten the rod to the handle by using (1) 3/32” x 3/4” cotter pin P#(K0094). Adjust the rod to allow the hook to close the box door completely.

Refer to Figures 4,5,6,7, and 8 for exploded parts drawings and photographs of the complete assembly.

2-4 Attaching The Aluminum Grass Container To The ZT Mower

NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR THREE PEOPLE TO ASSIST IN THE MOUNTING OF THE CONTAINER.

With three people available, two can lower the container onto the frame while the third person inserts the pivot pins P#(K0172) through the holes. Insert the pins from the outside to the inside. Secure with (1) 5/8” washer P#(K0058) and (1) 5/32” x 2-5/8” hair pin clip P#(K0088) per pivot pin.

Reattach the bottom ends of the door opening linkages to the main frame by using (1) Rue-Ring cotter pin P#(K1437) per side.

To test the functionality of the dump mechanism, pull the lift handle, (Figure 4), away from the unit, and lift upward. The door of the container should open and the box should pivot clockwise towards the ground.

2-5 Aluminum Grass Container Inlet Attachment

The inlet, (Figure 7), will need to be attached to the container. Open the container, push the inlet, from the inside of the container through the hole in the container to the outside. Orient the inlet opening to face the ground. Use the tabs P#(B1668) inside of the box to hold the inlet in place. It is recommended that two people Perform this step. That way, one person on the inside of the container can position the tabs, while the other person tightens the bolts. Looking at the outside of the container, the most difficult tab to tighten down will be the tab at the 4-5 o’clock position. Tighten that tab first. Then proceed to tighten the others.

2-6 Adjustment Of The Dump Mechanism

The linkage may be adjusted in two places, at the adjusting screw P#(K1435) and the latch assembly items. See (Figures 4 & 7) for visual clarification. To change the door closure tightness, screw the adjusting screw in or out. To adjust the latch, change the length of the latch rod by screwing the latch adjusting ball joint in or out. The latch hook pivot should be in the middle of the slot in the latch hook pivot plate. Slide the pivot back or forth and then re-tighten.

2-7 Attachment Of The Outer Engine Mount Tube

Place the outer engine mount tube P#(B1117) against the rear of the main frame assembly (Figure 3), with the hole in the tube to the right hand side of the mower. Fasten to the main frame assembly by using (2) 3/8” u- bolts P#(K1432) and (4) 3/8” flange nuts P#(K1215).
