SETUP AND INSTALLATION
1. Remove the mower deck from the tractor if
necessary. Refer to the appropriate Tractor
Owner’s Manual.
2. Attach each of the lift brackets to the predrilled
holes on the front chassis cross bar with a
5/16-18 x 1 in. bolt and a Whiz locknut. The
locknuts should be on the front sides of the
lift brackets. Refer to Lift Bracket Installa-
tion illustration. The RH bracket is attached us-
ing the existing battery pan mount bolt on
newer models. On earlier models, obtain the
5/16-18 x 1 in. bolt and nut locally to attach the
RH bracket.
NOTE: Predrilled holes exist only on Walker
tractors built after 1984. For earlier models, drill
two 5/16 in. (8 mm) holes in the front chassis
cross bar at the positions indicated in the Lift
Bracket Installation illustration.
IMPORTANT: For all 1980 to 1984 tractors,
remove the battery before drilling the RH
hole. Reinstall the battery after the lift brackets
have been installed. Refer to the appropriate
Tractor Owner’s Manual for battery removal and
installation procedures.
