Jump Starting the Battery
(Figure 20)
IMPORTANT: The unit used for jump starting
should have a 12 volt battery with at least 500
cold cranking amperes, and a negatively
grounded system.
IMPORTANT: Ensure battery is not frozen. If
battery is frozen, remove battery from unit
and allow it to thaw before charging.
1. Connect positive (+) jumper cable to
positive (+) terminal of discharged
battery.
2. Connect the other end of positive (+)
jumper cable to positive (+) terminal of
booster battery.
3. Connect negative (–) jumper cable to
negative (–) terminal of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the other end of negative (–)
jumper cable to engine of unit with
discharged battery.
NOTE: If engine will not start, unit or battery
may need service.
5. Start engine.
6. After engine starts, leave jumper cables
connected for one to two minutes.
7. Disconnect jumper cables in reverse
order of installation.
8. Operate unit as normal to charge battery.
FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Check (Figure 21)
NOTE: The distance, D
f
, should be 0”-.50”
greater then the distance D
r
when the wheels
are pointed straight ahead. If this is not the
case the tie rods need adjustment.
Lengthen the rods to make the distance
between D
f
and D
r
shorter. Shorten the rods
to make the distance between D
f
and D
r
longer.
• The same adjustment will be made for
both, left-hand and right-hand, tie rods.
• The minimum engagement of thread for
both tie rods is .25”.
Adjust (Figure 21)
1. Remove tie-rod(s) from spindle(s).
2. Loosen jam nut(s) and turn tie-rod(s)
clockwise or counterclockwise until the
distance between the jam nuts is within
specifications.
3. Tighten jam nuts.
4. Install tie-rod(s) on spindle(s).

2. Push idler towards the inside of the unit
and remove hydrostatic belt from idler.
3. Remove hydrostatic belt from engine
sheave and hydrostatic transmission
pulley.
Install (Figure 22)
1. Install hydrostatic belt on hydrostatic
transmission pulley and engine sheave.
2. Push idler towards the inside of the unit
