Step 1 Improper installation or application of a sulky can effect the stability and control of the Mid-Sized Mowers, which could cause personal injury or death. Installing the Axle on a Hydraulic Drive Mower with Standard T-Bar Handles • Weight kits mounted in the rear position need to be removed when a sulky is installed. • The parking brake must be adjusted, on units equipped with a parking brake, when a sulky is installed.

Improper installation or application of a sulky can effect the stability and control of the Mid-Sized Mowers, which could cause personal injury or death. • Weight kits mounted in the rear position need to be removed when a sulky is installed. • The parking brake must be adjusted, on units equipped with a parking brake, when a sulky is installed. • The sulky is not recommended on Mid Size mowers equipped with 32 inch mowers. Figure 7 1. 2. 1.
Step 5. Insert the large spacers between the axle mounting brackets and the frame, lining up the holes (Figure 8). 3 Note: You can install the axle in one of 3 horizontal positions (Figure 5). For a T-bar controlled machine, the average person will get the best results using the rear holes; however, if a large person will be using the sulky, you may want to install it using the middle or front hole to give the operator more room. For a pistol grip machine, use the front holes.

Because the sulky raises you several inches off of the ground, adjust the handle height to accommodate the user on the sulky comfortably. Refer to the mower Operator’s Manual for more information on changing the handle height.

Note: The machines with T2 handles do not need a hole drilled into the side of the machine for installing the lanyard.
Step 8 Installing the Weight Kit Parts needed for this step: - Weight Kit (if needed) Procedure Use the correct weight kits when the sulky is installed or personal injury or death could occur. Figure 15 T2 T-Bar Handle Shown 1. Shoulder Bolt 2. Washer, (1/2 inch) 3. Lanyard 4. 5. • Never operate the machine with out recommended front weight kits. Washer, (3/8 inch) Locknut, (5/16 inch) • Do not use rear weights when a sulky is installed. 7. Raise the sulky assembly and attach the lanyard.
Important: A weight kit is not required for Mid Sized mowers with height-of-cut pins shown in Figure 18. To enhance the performance of the machine, install Weight Kit(s), 112–9971, onto Mid-Size mowers (TURBO FORCE mower decks) with the style of height-of-cut pins shown in Figure 18. Use the following table to determine the number of weights recommended to install a Tru Trak® Sulky on a Mid-Size mower with a TURBO FORCE mower deck (Figure 18).
Step 9 Adjusting the Parking Brake No Parts Required Procedure After installing the sulky, adjust the machine’s parking brake to compensate for the increased machine weight. Refer to the Mid-Size mower Operator’s Manual for the correct procedure to adjust the parking brake.
Operation Operating Tips Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Learning to Drive Drive slowly and take time to learn how the sulky moves when using it for the first time. Positioning the Sulky for Transport Turning with a Sulky Use care when turning to ensure that you do not swing yourself and the sulky into obstacles. Before placing the machine on a trailer, lift each sulky assembly up and secure them with the lanyards (Figure 19).
Maintenance Checking the Tire Pressure the sulky wheel is used when the handle is in the high position. The middle hole is for the middle handle height position and the front hole is for the low handle height position. Ensure that the caster wheel tires are filled with air to 50 psi (345 kPa) every 8 operating hours or before each use. 4. Install the nut (5/16 inch), small washer, spacer, lanyard and bolt (5/16 x 1 inch) into the desired hole (Figure 21).
