2. Remove the vertical mount bolt securing the black negative battery lead (a)
to the negative battery post (marked NEG (-)). Move the cable away from the
negative battery post (Figure 38).

3. Remove the vertical mount bolt securing the red positive battery lead (b) to the
positive battery post (marked POS (+)). Move the cable away from the positive
battery post (Figure 38).
4. Locate and hold the carriage bolt (a) at the front of the battery bracket (c) to
prevent it from falling (Figure 39).

5. Remove the hex lock nut (b) securing the battery bracket (c) in place. Save the
carriage bolt and hex lock nut for later reinstallation (Figure 39).
6. Lift the battery bracket (c) off of the tab at the left side of the battery
compartment and save for later reinstallation (Figure 39).
Using the Transmission Bypass Rods
Do not tow the mower, even with the bypass rods engaged. Serious
transmission damage will result from doing so.
PARKER TRANSMISSION (IF EQUIPPED)
If for any reason the mower will not drive or you wish to move the mower, the two
hydrostatic transmissions are equipped with a bypass rod that will allow you to
manually move the mower short distances.
1. Engage the transmission bypass valves by pulling the bypass lever (a) upward and
all the way back (Figure 40).

2. To release the bypass lever (a), push the lever forward (Figure 40).
HYDRO-GEAR TRANSMISSION (IF EQUIPPED)
1. To engage the transmission bypass rods, pull the rod (a) up into the larger
opening of the key slot, then pull back until the collar on the rod passes through
the frame (Figure 41).
2. Lower the rod back into the smaller opening of the key slot, making sure the collar
is secured on the outside of the frame (b). Repeat on opposite side (Figure 41).

3. After moving mower, reverse Steps 1 and 2 to disengage the bypass rods.
Hydrostatic Transmission
PARKER TRANSMISSION (IF EQUIPPED)
Models with Parker hydrostatic transmissions are equipped with dual integrated
hydrostatic pumps/transaxles equipped with a transmission oil expansion reservoir.
Under normal operating conditions, the oil level in the expansion reservoir does not
need to be checked and no additional oil is needed. If checking the reservoir oil level,
proceed as follows:
Check the oil level ONLY before starting the mower when the transmission
oil is fully cooled.
1. Pivot the operator's seat forward and clean the reservoir cap and the area around
the cap to prevent debris from contaminating the transmission oil (Figure 42).
2. Turn the reservoir cap counterclockwise to remove, then check the oil level in the
reservoir. Oil should be visible at the bottom of the cup, but the oil level must NOT
be above the "FULL COLD" line (Figure 42). DO NOT FILL THE RESERVOIR.
3. If necessary to add oil because of some type of leakage, add only enough oil to
bring the level to the "FULL COLD" line. Reinstall the cap and fully tighten.
NOTE: Prior to the initial operation of the mower, the oil level in the reservoir may
be slightly higher than the maximum due to air in the oil lines. Operation of the
mower will eventually purge the air from the lines and the oil level will settle to
the maximum.
