1. Stand to one side and cut the banding.

narrow sides of the box and peel it off the pallet. Be careful of the staples.

3. Pry off the fasteners and cut any ties holding the machine to the pallet.

4. Remove the brush deck by lifting it up and over the supporting lumber, and then

remove the lumber. You may need to remove one of the cross slats. At this point

the lawn deck (if ordered) is free standing and can be lifted off the pallet.

6. Attach the deck to the power unit following the directions on the next page. The

belt is stored below the black pulley cover.

deck to the power unit.

cutting you when cut. Always stand to one side when

cutting the band.

disconnected.
