ASSEMBLY AND SETUP
5. SECURING DECK HOSES
a) Attach the 3/8" drain line hose to the top case
drain port of the deck motor, with the hose angled
straight back toward the tractor (not arched right
or left). Tighten securely. Tie the 3/8" hose at B
o
on the center 90 hose end fitting of deck valve V.
b) Rotate both 5/8" hose fittings so the hoses slope
downward and clear the rear of the motor plate by
approximately 1/4". Tighten both fittings on the
motor securely.
c) Before tightening the 5/8" hoses on their fittings,
push them down along their entire length. Then
place a wrench on a hose and another wrench on
the connection to the fitting. Turn the hose
wrench approximately 1/16 of a turn (22.5
opposite the direction the fitting connection will be
tightened. Hold the hose in that position while
tightening the fitting connection securely. Repeat
for the other 5/8" hose. This is an important step
to prevent the hoses from loosening as the deck
tips up and down at the left and right ends while
mowing over undulating ground, or movement
during transport.
6. HOSE VERIFICATION
a) Raise the front axle of the tractor until the deck will not touch the ground when fully lowered. Check deck
hoses in this position and in the fully raised position. Readjust if necessary using the procedures above so
that the hoses do not rub in any deck position on the tractor or deck.
b) When satisfied with hose adjustment, replace the deck belt cover.
7. HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT PINS
a) Identify with reference to the height of cut chart
on the deck belt cover or in the cutterdeck section
of this manual the desired hanger pin location.
b) With the cutterdeck slightly raised, insert an
adjustment pin in the same location for each
hanger.
