Safety • Warning—Fuel is highly flammable. Take the following precautions: – Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose. – Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while refuelling. – Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running or when the engine is hot.
• • • • • • • • • Be careful during adjustment of the machine to prevent entrapment of the fingers between moving blades and fixed parts of the machine. • Disengage drives, disengage the cutting unit, set parking brake, stop engine and disconnect spark plug wire. Wait for all movement to stop before adjusting, cleaning or repairing. • Clean grass and debris from cutting unit, drives, mufflers, and engine to help prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spillage.
Vibration (Model 04035) – Reduce engine speed and apply the service brake when going downhill to keep forward speed slow and to maintain control of the machine. • The grass basket must be in place during the mowing operation for maximum safety. Shut the engine off before emptying the basket. • Do not touch the engine, muffler, or exhaust pipe while the engine is running or soon after it has stopped because these areas could be hot enough to cause burns.

Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. Think Safety First • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills. Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and decals in the safety section.
1. Push the kickstand down with your foot and pull up and back on the handle to raise the wheels off of the ground. 2. Place traction lever into Engage position and engine controls in starting position. 3. Attempt to start engine. In certain conditions during fueling, static electricity can be released causing a spark which can ignite the gasoline vapors. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. The engine should not start.
move the traction lever to the Engaged position, and transport the mower onto collar of the green. 2.

Lubrication Greasing the Machine Service Interval: Every 25 hours Lubricate the 13 grease fittings on the mower using a No. 2 multipurpose lithium base grease. A hand operated grease gun is recommended for best results. The grease fitting locations are as follows: Figure 16 • 2 on the front roller (Figure 14) • 2 on the reel bearings (Figure 14) • 2 on the drum axles (Figure 15) • 3 on the differential (Figure 15) • 2 on the reel countershaft bearings (Figure 16) • 2 on the belt idler pivots (Figure 17).
Engine Maintenance Servicing the Engine Oil Service Interval: After the first 8 hours—Change the engine oil. Before each use or daily—Check the engine oil level. Every 50 hours—Change the engine oil. (More frequently in dusty or dirty conditions) Crankcase capacity: 20 oz. (.59 l) The engine uses any high-quality oil having the American Petroleum Institute - APl - “service classification" SF, SG, SH or SJ. Oil viscosity - weight - must be selected according to ambient temperature.
4. Push down on the handle to tip the mower and the engine backward, allowing more oil to run into the drain pan. 5. Install the drain plug and refill the crankcase with the proper oil; refer to Checking the Engine Oil Level. Servicing the Air Cleaner Service Interval: Every 25 hours—Clean and oil the air cleaner foam element. (More often in dirty or dusty conditions) Every 100 hours—Clean or replace the paper air filter element.

Close the fuel shut off valve and unscrew the bowl from the filter body (Figure 25). Figure 24 4. Install the correctly gapped spark plug and tighten it to 17 ft.-lb (23 N-m). 5. Install the spark plug wire on the spark plug. Figure 25 1. Shut-off valve 2. Bowl 2.
Brake Maintenance Electrical System Maintenance Servicing the Interlock Switch Adjusting the Service/Parking Brake Use the following procedure if the switch needs adjustment or replacement. If service/parking brake slips when operated, an adjustment is required. 1. Make sure the engine is off and the traction lever is disengaged and resting against the neutral stop (Figure 26).. 1. Move service/parking brake lever to the Off position. 2.
Belt Maintenance Important: Do not over tension the belt. B. Tighten the nut to lock the adjustment. Adjusting the Belts 4. Install the belt cover by placing it in position. Service Interval: Every 300 hours—Check the condition and tension of belts 5. While maintaining a slight gap between the cover seal and the side plate, install each mounting bolt until the threads engage in the insert. The gap allows visual alignment of the bolts to the threaded inserts.
Adjusting the Primary V-Belts the belt until the desired belt tension is attained (Figure 31). 1. To adjust the belt tension on primary V-belts, first check the adjustment of the traction control. Refer to Adjusting the Traction Control. If unable to attain the 4 to 5 lb force required in adjusting the traction control, proceed to next step. Important: Do not over tension the belt. B. Tighten the nut to lock the adjustment. 4. Install the belt cover by placing it in position. 5.

Right rear bearing housing 5. Loosen the idler pulley mounting nut on the differential idler pulley and pivot the idler pulley counterclockwise away from the backside of the belt to release the belt tension. 8.
Controls System Maintenance Cutting Unit Maintenance Leveling the Rear Drum to the Reel Adjusting the Traction Control 1. Position the machine on a flat, level surface, preferably a precision steel work plate. If traction control does not engage or it slips during operation, an adjustment is required. 2. Place a 1/4 x 1 inch (0.6 x 2.5 cm) flat steel strip, approximately 29 inches (73.
turn the bedbar adjusting screw clockwise (on the same end of reel, one click at a time, until the paper is pinched lightly, when inserted from the front, parallel to the bedknife, which results in a slight drag when paper is pulled (Figure 39) Figure 38 1. Driven pulley 2. 4 holes 3. Idler Pulley 8. Loosen the 4 roller bearing screws and the screw securing the idler pulley. Figure 40 9. Raise or lower the right side of the roller assembly until the gap is less than 0.010 inch (.025 cm).
Important: When set properly, the rear and front rollers will contact the gauge bar and the screw will be snug against the bedknife. This ensures the height-of-cut is identical at both ends of the bedknife. 7. Tighten nuts to lock the adjustment. Important: To avoid scalping on undulating turf, ensure that the roller supports are positioned rearward (the roller closer to the reel). Note: The front roller can be put in three different positions (Figure 44), depending on the application and needs of the user.
Bedbar Identification 4 inches (10 cm). Loosen the bolts and nuts securing each end of the shield to the sideplate and adjust the shield to the correct height. To determine if the bedbar is standard or aggressive, check the left bedbar mounting ears. If the mounting ears are rounded it is a standard bedbar. If the mounting ears have a notch in them, it is an aggressive bedbar (Figure 47). 3. Tighten the fasteners.
Setting the Machine to Match Turf Conditions Use the following table to set the machine to match turf conditions.
Servicing the Bedbar 5. Tighten the spring tension nut until the spring is collapsed, then back it off 1/2 turn. Removing the Bedbar 6. Adjust the bedbar; refer to Adjusting the Bedknife to the Reel. 1. Turn bedbar adjuster screw, counterclockwise, to back bedknife away from reel (Figure 48). Backlapping the Reel 1. Remove the plug in the right reel drive cover (Figure 50). Figure 48 1. Bedbar adjusting screw 2. Spring tension nut 3. Bedbar 2.
Storage 1. Remove grass clippings, dirt, and grime from the external parts of the entire machine, especially the engine. Clean dirt and chaff from the outside of the engine’s cylinder head fins and blower housing. Important: You can wash the machine with mild detergent and water. Do not pressure wash the machine. Avoid excessive use of water, especially near the shift lever plate, and engine. 2. For long-term storage (more than 90 days) add stabilizer/conditioner additive to fuel in the tank. A.
