Reversing the

Idler Assembly Hardware

(Manual PTO Garden Tractors

equipped with a 46-inch deck ONLY)

If you’re mounting this snow thrower attachment to a tractor equipped with any deck other than a manually engaged 46-inch, proceed to either:

1.Mounting the Idler Assembly (for tractors equipped with a 42, 46, 50 & 54-inch deck ONLY) in this section

2.Mounting the Idler Pulley and Pin (for Manual PTO tractors equipped with a 38- or 42-inch deck ONLY) previously in this section, or

3.Mounting the Undercarriage Assembly (all tractors not mentioned above) on page 12.

These instructions are for mounting this snow thrower attachment to a GARDEN TRACTOR (Model Series

800)equipped with a Manual PTO and a 46-inch deck.

NOTE: If you own a Manual PTO Lawn Tractor with

a46-inch deck, you can disregard the following steps; they are unnecessary. A LAWN TRACTOR is any 600- 649 Series mower, an 800 Series mower is a GARDEN TRACTOR. Refer to Determine Your Model of Rider on page 3 of this manual to determine what model rider you are attempting to install this attachment to.

1.Remove the flange nut, washer and shoulder spacer which secures the double-idler bracket to the undercarriage. See Figure 5.

2.Remove the 3-inch hex bolt from the bottom of the front pulley, to free it from the undercarriage.

3.Reassemble with the 3-inch hex bolt on top of the undercarriage and the flange nut securing the pulley from the bottom. See Figure 6.

IMPORTANT: Components must be reassembled in the exact order illustrated in Figure 6.

Mounting the Belt Keeper

(Manual PTO Garden Tractors equipped

with a 46-inch deck ONLY)

The belt keeper and hardware (packaged separately, refer to page 6-7) must be installed around the engine pulley of all Manual PTO Garden Tractors with a 46-inch cutting deck. To do so, proceed as follows:

1.Locate the engine pulley by looking beneath the front area of your tractor.

2.Secure the belt keeper to the inside of the tractor’s frame with the hex nut, bell washer and jam nut as shown in Figure 7.

3.Make certain the cupped portion of the bell washer is facing IN before tightening the jam nut.
