ASSEMBLY, cont'd
6. Remove the lock nut (a) securing
one of the front gauge wheels to
the deck. Remove the shoulder
screw (b), tube spacer (c) and
shoulder spacer (e) to remove
the wheel (d). See Figure 15.
7. Line up the gauge wheel with
the tube spacer through the
center, with the shoulder spacer
on the shorter side hub of the
gauge wheel and position the
assembly inside the brackets at
the desired height.
nOTE: Allow a 1⁄4-1⁄2" (6.35-12.7
mm) clearance between the ground
and gauge wheel.
8. Insert the shoulder screw into the chosen index
hole on the front gauge wheel bracket.
nOTE: On the left side and right side deck gauge
wheels, the shoulder screw must be installed from
the outside of the tractor inward, through the square
hole on the bracket. On center deck gauge wheels (if
equipped) the shoulder screw side of the assembly
can be installed from either direction. See Figure 16.
9. Secure with the lock nut previously removed.
Battery Information
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and
related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands
after handling.
WARNING: Should battery acid accidentally splatter into the eyes or onto
the skin, rinse the affected area immediately with clean cold water. Seek
prompt medical attention.
If acid spills on clothing, first dilute it with clean water, then neutralize with
a solution of ammonia/water or baking soda/water.
NEVER connect (or disconnect) battery charger clips to the battery while the
charger is turned on, as it can cause sparks.
Keep all sources of ignition (cigarettes, matches, lighters) away from the
battery. The gas generated during charging can be combustible.
As a further precaution, only charge the battery in a well ventilated area.
Always shield eyes and protect skin and clothing when working
near batteries.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid and may emit explosive gases. Use extreme
caution when handling batteries. Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
CAUTION: When attaching battery cables, always connect the POSITIVE
(Red) wire to terminal first, followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire.
nOTE: The positive battery terminal is marked Pos. (+). The negative battery terminal is
marked Neg. (–).
Connecting Battery Cables
WARNING: Always connect the positive lead to the battery before
connecting the negative lead. This will prevent sparking or possible injury
from an electrical short caused by contacting the tractor body with tools
being used to connect the cables.
For shipping reasons the
factory may leave both battery
cables disconnected from
(b)
the terminals. To connect
the battery cables, proceed
as follows:
1. If present, remove the
plastic cover from the
positive battery terminal.
Attach the red connector
to the positive battery
terminal (+) using the bolt
(a) and hex nut (b). See
Figure 17.

2. If present, remove the plastic cover from the negative battery terminal and attach the
black cable to the negative battery terminal (–) with the bolt (a) and hex nut (b). See
Figure 17.
3. Position the red rubber boot (c) over the positive battery terminal (+) to help protect
it from corrosion. See Figure 17.
nOTE: If the battery is put into service after date shown on top/side of battery, charge
the battery as instructed in the Service and Maintenance section, prior to operating.
(a)
Battery Maintenance
•
The battery is filled with battery acid and then sealed at the factory. However, even a
"maintenance free" battery requires some maintenance to ensure its proper life cycle.
•
Spray the terminals and exposed wire with a battery terminal sealer, or coat the
terminals with a thin coat of grease or petroleum jelly, to protect against corrosion.
•
Always keep the battery cables and terminals clean and free of corrosion.
•
Avoid tipping. Even a sealed battery will leak electrolyte when tipped.
Battery Storage
•
When storing the tractor for extended periods, disconnect the negative battery cable.
It is not necessary to remove the battery.
•
All batteries discharge during storage. Keep the exterior of the battery clean,
especially the top. A dirty battery will discharge more rapidly.
•
The battery must be stored with a full charge. A discharged battery can freeze sooner
than a charged battery. A fully charged battery will store longer in cold temperatures
than hot.
•
Recharge the battery before returning to service. Although the tractor may start, the
engine charging system may not fully recharge the battery.
Battery Removal
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
The battery is located beneath the seat frame. To remove the battery:
1. Remove the hex washer screw (a) securing
the battery hold-down bracket (b) to the
frame. Then flip the battery hold-down
bracket (b) up to free the battery. See
Figure 18.
2. Remove the hex cap screw and sems nut
securing the black negative battery lead to
the negative battery post (marked NEG).
Move the cable away from the negative
battery post.
3. Remove the hex cap screw and sems nut
securing the red positive battery lead to
the positive battery post (marked POS).
4. Carefully lift the battery out of the tractor.
5. Install the battery by repeating the above
steps in the reverse order.
Charging the Battery
Test and, if necessary, recharge the battery after the tractor has been stored for a period
of time.
•
A voltmeter or load
tester should read 12.6
volts (DC) or higher
across the battery
terminals. See Figure 19.
•
Charge the battery
with a 12-volt battery
charger at a MAXIMUM
rate of 10 amps.
Operating the
Seat Latch
1. Place the lapbar drive control levers fully out in
the parking brake position.
2. Locate the seat latch at the rear base of the seat.
3. Press downward on the front tabs to disengage
the seat latch.
4. Rotate the entire seat pan upward. See
Figure 20.
