Removing/Installing the Battery
1. Perform one of the following to remove the battery cover:
• Mowers with 48, 54 or 60 Inch Decks - Remove the two thumb screws (a)
securing the battery cover (b) to the right fender. Lift up to remove the battery
cover (Figure 22).
• Mowers with 36 Inch Decks - Unhook the rubber strap (c) securing the
battery cover (b) to the battery tray (d). Lift up to remove the battery cover
(Figure 22).

2. Remove the nut securing the strap holding the battery in place.
NOTE: The positive battery terminal is marked POS. (+) (e). The negative battery
terminal is marked NEG. (–) (f) (Figure 23).
3. Remove the hex cap screw (g) and sems nut (h) securing the black negative
battery lead (i) to the negative battery post (marked NEG) (f). Move the cable
away from the negative battery post (Figure 23).
4. Remove the red boot (j), hex cap screw (k) and sems nut (l) securing the red
positive battery lead (m) to the positive battery post (marked POS) (e) (Figure 23).
5. Carefully lift the battery out of the mower.
6. To Install the battery reverse STEPS 1-5.

TIRES
For proper traction and deck leveling the maximum recommended tire
pressure is 12 psi. Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times.
NEVER exceed the Maximum PSI noted on the tire side wall.
Check the tire air pressure after every 50 hours of operation or weekly. Keep the tires
inflated to the recommended pressures. Improper inflation will shorten the tire
service life and produce an uneven cut. Observe the following guidelines:
Rear Tires — 10-12 psi (69-82.7 kPa) max recommended operating pressure.
Front Tires — N/A - Front tires are semi pneumatic and do not require inflation.
• Do not inflate a tire above the operational pressure of 12 psi (82.7 kPa).
• Do not reinflate a tire that has been run flat or seriously under inflated. Have it
inspected and serviced by a qualified tire mechanic.

WARNING
PARKING BRAKE CHECK/ADJUSTMENT - 36 INCH DECK ONLY
Check the parking brake engagement after every 50 hours of operation or weekly.
The brake wedges should firmly engage with the tires, pressing down into the
tire tread to keep the mower from moving. Perform the following to check and, if
necessary, adjust the brake wedge to maintain engagement as the tire tread wears:
1. Check rear tire air pressure to ensure both rear tires are inflated to the
recommended pressure (10-12 psi (69-82.7 kPa) max recommended
operating pressure).
2. With the parking brake disengaged, measure the gap between the brake wedge
(a) and the rear tire (b) on both sides of the mower (Figure 24). This measurement
must be 1/2 to 3/4 (12.7 mm - 19 mm).
3. If the gap between the brake wedge and tire is between 1/2 and 3/4 inches (12.7
mm - 19 mm) go to STEP 5. Otherwise go to STEP 4 to adjust brake wedges.
4. If necessary, perform the following to adjust the brake wedges (Figure 24):
a. Disengage the parking brake.
b. Remove the two hex bolts (c) and locknuts (d) securing the brake wedge (a) to
the brake wedge bracket (e).
c. Move the brake wedge up or down to one of five mounting positions (f).
NOTE: Each mounting position will move the brake wedge 1⁄4 inch (6.4 mm) up
or down.
d. Using the two hex bolts and locknuts, secure the brake wedge to the brake
wedge bracket.
e. Ensure the gap between the brake wedge and tire is between 1/2 and 3/4
inches (12.7 mm - 19 mm).
5. If necessary repeat STEPS a - d to adjust the remaining brake wedge.
6. Engage the parking brake and ensure the brake wedge engages and presses
into the tire on both sides of the mower. If necessary repeat STEPS 1-6 until the
brake wedges firmly engage with the tires, pressing down into the tire tread and
keeping the mower from moving.
7. If the parking brake will not properly engage the tires stop use of mower and see
your authorized service dealer.
USING THE TRANSMISSION BYPASS VALVES
If for any reason the mower will not drive or you wish to move the mower, the two
hydrostatic transmissions are equipped with a bypass valve that will allow you to
manually move the mower short distances.
Do not tow the mower, even with the bypass valve open. Serious
transmission damage will result from doing so.
