ASSEMBLY & SETUP
8. WEIGHT TRANSFER SPRINGS
Secure the weight transfer springs as follows to allow
them to rotate during normal deck operation:
a) Start the engine and fully raise the deck. Support
it by hooking the deck latch to the frame floor
board. Stop the engine.
b) Spring Top - For each of the two 3/8-16 x 1-1/2"
bolts, run a flanged nut to the end of the threads,
which leaves a shank section exposed. Hook one
end of a spring over the shank of each bolt. Insert
the bolts from the inside of bracket BT toward the
front of the tractor. Secure each bolt with another
flanged nut on the outside.
c) Spring bottom - Assemble large washer W and
spacer R on each of the two 3/8-16 x 1" bolts.
Place the hook on the other end of each spring
over the spacer. Insert the bolts into brackets BB
facing inward and secure each on the inside
surface with a flanged nut.
d) Slightly lift the deck to release the deck latch.
Rotate it downward out of the way.
9. LUBRICATE
– Lubricate the fittings at the deck end of the two deck push arms.
