Position Drive Control levers
The drive control levers of the riding mower are lowered for shipping purposes.
The flange lock nuts, hex screws, and flat washers that normally secure the control
levers in their operating position are unfastened and installed in the slotted holes of
the control levers for shipment. The control levers must be repositioned to operate
the riding mower. To reposition the control levers for operation, proceed as follows:
1.
Remove the hex screws and flat washers from the hardware pack in your
manual bag.
2.
Lift and swing that control lever upward until the slotted hole in the lever
bracket aligns with one of the holes in the pivot bracket. See Figure 4.

3.
Slide the flat washer onto the hex screw. From the outside, insert the hex
screw with washer through the control lever slot and the hole of the pivot
bracket. See Figure 4. Using a 1⁄2" wrench snug the screw, but do not fully
tighten.
4.
Note the relative position of the control lever to the pivot bracket,
then repeat the previous steps to reposition the other control lever in
approximately the same position.
Torque the screws down tightly to prevent the control levers from slipping
out of position.
5.
Refer to "Adjusting the Drive Control Levers" in the Maintenance &
Adjustments for instructions on the final adjustment of the levers.

ASSEMBLY
Connecting the Battery Cables
Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
When attaching battery cables, always connect the POSITIVE (Red) wire to
its terminal first, followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire.
For shipping reasons, both battery cables on your equipment may have been left
disconnected from the terminals at the factory. To connect the battery cables,
proceed as follows:
NOTE: The positive battery terminal is marked Pos. (+). The negative battery
terminal is marked Neg. (–).
NOTE: If the positive battery cable is already attached, skip ahead to step 2.
1.
Remove the plastic cover, if present, from the positive battery terminal and
attach the red cable to the positive battery terminal (+) with the bolt and
hex nut. See Figure 5.
2.
Remove the plastic cover, if present, from the negative battery terminal and
attach the black cable to the negative battery terminal (–) with the bolt and
hex nut. See Figure 5.
3.
Position the red rubber boot over the positive battery terminal to help
protect it from corrosion.
NOTE: If the battery is put into service after the date shown on top or side
of battery, charge the battery as instructed in the Service and Maintenance
section of this Operator's Manual prior to operating the riding mower.
