NOTICE

Gearbox is not filled at the factory. Prior to delivery to customer, make sure gearbox is filled only half-full with 80W or 90W API GL-4 or GL-5 gear lube. Use side plug to remove any excess oil.

1.Make sure vent plug hole is clear (installed by dealer).

2.Remove plug on side of gearbox.

3.Fill gearbox until oil runs out the side plug on gearbox. Use a high quality gear oil with a viscosity index of 80W or 90W and an API service rating of GL-4 or GL-5.

INSTALL RUBBER SHIELDING

1.Attach rubber belting (3) and deflector brackets (1) to the front of the frame using self-tapping screws (6), flat washers (8), and lock washers (7).

2.Attach front reflector bracket (9) over left front shield.

3.Attach rubber deflector (4) and center deflector strap (2) to the rear of the cutter frame using self- tapping screws (6), flat washers (8), and lock washers (7).

Full chain or rubber shielding must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure people or dam- age property.

If this machine is not equipped with full chain or rubber shielding, operation must be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).

This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec- tive devices cannot prevent all objects from escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
