The mower deck is disengaged. 2. The steering controls are in the outer, locked neutral position. 3. The driver is sitting in the driver’s seat. 4. The parking brake is on. Make daily inspections to ensure that the safety system works by attempting to start the engine when one of the conditions is not met.
MAINTENANCE Checking the Engine's Cooling Air Intake Check that the engine’s cooling air intake is free from leaves, grass, and dirt. If the cooling air intake is clogged, engine cooling deteriorates, which can lead to engine damage. 8011-719 Check and clean the cooling air intake Checking and Adjusting the Throttle Cable 1 Check that the engine responds to throttle increases and that a good engine speed is attained at full throttle. If doubts arise, contact the service workshop.
MAINTENANCE Replacing the Air Filter Standard air filter If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly, the air filter may be clogged. If run with a dirty air filter, the spark plugs can obtain a coating that disrupts operation. For this reason, it is important to replace the air filter regularly (see the heading Maintenance Schedule for the proper service interval).
MAINTENANCE Replacing the Fuel Filter Replace the line-mounted fuel filter every 100 hours (once per season) or more regularly if it is clogged. Replace the filter as follows: 1. Move the hose clamps away from the filter. Use flat-nosed pliers. 2. Pull the filter loose from the hose ends. 3. Push the new filter into the hose ends. Position the filter with the ”FLOW” arrow pointing up toward the fuel pump. If necessary, a soap solution can be applied to the filter ends to ease mounting. 4.
MAINTENANCE Checking the Parking Brake Visually check that no damage is found on the lever, links, or switch belonging to the parking brake. Perform a stand-still test and check that there is sufficent braking action. To adjust the parking brake, contact the Husqvarna service workshop. WARNING! Faulty adjustment can cause an accident.
MAINTENANCE • Carefully roll the belt over the top of the cutter housing pulleys. • Remove the belt from around the electric clutch on the engine shaft. • The belt can now be removed. Deck belt installation NOTE: For ease in installing the deck belt, refer to the routing decal on the front edge of the deck. • Wrap the deck belt around the electric clutch that is located on the engine shaft. • Push the rest of the belt through the IZT(Integraded Zeroturn Transaxle) support and up onto the deck.
MAINTENANCE IZT belt To replace IZT (Integraded Zeroturn Transaxle) belt 3 1 4 Park the mower on a level surface. Engage the park brake. 2 5 IZT belt removal NOTE: Be careful not to damage the fan blades on the IZT as this can affect cooling or damage the IZT • Remove the deck belt (see to replace deck belt in this section of the manual). • Create slack in the belt by removing the spring on the pump idler arm. • The belt should now be able to be removed from the engine pulley and IZT pulleys.
MAINTENANCE Checking the Blades In order to attain the best mowing effect, it is important that the blades are well sharpened and not damaged. Always use protective gloves when handling the blades. 8011-604 Bent or cracked blades or blades with large nicks should be replaced. Check the blade mounts. IMPORTANT INFORMATION The sharpening of blades should be carried out by an authorized service workshop. Damaged blades should be replaced when hitting obstacles that result in a breakdown.
MAINTENANCE Blade replacement: WARNING! Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling. • Remove blade bolt by turning counterclockwise. 8011-671 1.

Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position and remove the key. 4. Make sure the blades and all moving parts have completely stopped. 5. Disconnect the spark plug wire from all spark plugs and place the wire where it cannot come in contact with the plug. WARNING! Blades are sharp.
MAINTENANCE To level deck Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level surface. Make sure the tires are inflated to the correct pressure. See “Technical Data” on page 64. If tires are under or over inflated, you can not properly adjust your deck. NOTE: It may be easier to adjust the front lift linkages by removing the floor pan before any adjustments are made. Side-to-side adjustment 1. Raise the deck into the highest cutting position 4 1/2" (114 mm) 2.
MAINTENANCE Front-to-back adjustment IMPORTANT INFORMATION Deck must be level side-to-side. If the following front-to-back adjustment is necessary, be sure to adjust both front or both rear linkages equally so the deck will stay level. To obtain the best cutting performance, the deck should be adjusted so the front tip of the blades are approximately 1/8" (3.2 mm) to 1/4" (6.5 mm) lower than the rear tip. If the front tip is higher, this will create a poor quality of cut.
MAINTENANCE To adjust anti-scalp rollers Anti-scalp rollers are properly adjusted when they are just slightly off of the ground when the deck is at the desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti-scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Adjust Anti-scalp rollers with the mower on a flat level surface. CZ-9 Anti-scalp roller 1.
MAINTENANCE Cleaning and Washing Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s lifespan. Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use (after it is cooled), before the dirt sticks. Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck. Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing. 8011-644 Cleaning Caster Wheels Check every 200 hours.
MAINTENANCE Parking brake To adjust parking brake NOTE: Make sure the brake arm is engaged into brake sprocket on both sides. You can push the mower to make it engage into the sprocket.
