What to do:
· Check that the battery is fully charged. A fully charged battery should read 12 volts under

load. Manually start the engine and then put a volt tester on the battery. If you need to
charge the battery, follow the directions above.

· Check all cable connections.
· The wiring harness consists of a set of wires that lead from the ignition switch to the battery.

Disconnect and reconnect the battery wires (black to black and red to red) and check the wire
connections at the key switch.

· Call one of our Technical Service Representatives TOLL-FREE 1(800)DR-OWNER(376-

9637) for assistance.

To Remove the Mow-Ball

Support Assembly

WARNING! Before performing any maintenance procedure, the engine should be stopped

and the spark plug wire disconnected.

Tool Needed:

• #3 Phillips head screwdriver or one with
at least a 6" shank

Set the machine on a bench if possible.
Do not tip the machine all the way back
on its handlebar unless you have drained
the gas and oil.

1. Insert the screwdriver into the hole in

the outer cylinder, then rotate the
Mow-Ball

Support until the

screwdriver fits into a second hole in
the bearing housing, locking it into
place (Figure 35).

2. Turn the Mow-Ball

Support

assembly as you would a light bulb
(counterclockwise) until it unscrews
completely from the bearing housing
(Figure 36).

Note: If the Mow-Ball

Support

assembly continues to turn, but does
not come off, rotate it until the
screwdriver fits into a third hole in the
bearing housing shaft. This should
lock it in place and allow you to
remove the Mow-Ball

Support

assembly.
