Removing and Installing Mower Deck Foot Plate

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Due to initial brake wear, the park
brake should be checked and adjusted after the first 25 hours of
use.

A park brake that is adjusted too tightly could damage the
transmission or cause premature brake wear.

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Always operate the mower with the
foot plate installed. Operating with the foot plate removed can
cause serious injury.
