14 DR 46" LAWN MOWER DECK Safety & Operating Instructions
Note: The assembly from this step forward is with the ATM Power Unit.
6. Install the Drive Belt by looping it under the
Clutch Pulley, inside the Idler Pulley and back
to the lower Engine Pulley (Figure 14). You
may have to twist the Belt to get it past the
Hub and Engine Pulley. If it's difficult to get
the Belt past the Differential Hub Bolts, move
the machine forward or back a little so the Belt
clears the Differential Hub Bolts.
7. Push the Deck away from the Power Unit as
far as possible and push the Pivot Washer back
toward the engine (it should be between the
bolt and the frame).
8. Replace the 5/16" Bolt through the hole in the
Pivot Tube and mount the 5/16" Lock Nut so
1 to 2 threads show – do not over tighten
(Figure 15). If the Bolt won't go in, use a piece
of wood as a wedge to push the Deck away
from the Power Unit and line up the holes.
9. Replace the Extension Spring (Figure 16).
Note: You can use the cable tie provided or a
piece of wire to make a loop to pull the
Extension Spring into place.
10. Replace the Blade Clutch Spring (see Figure 6).
11. Install the Anti-rotation Strap (see Figure 5).
Note: Only tighten the nut on the Anti-
rotation Strap until 2-3 threads show on the
outside of the nut. This strap must be loose to
operate properly.
