WHEEL DRIVE ADJUSTMENTS
Drive Belt Guard
All mowers are equipped with the lower guard
that covers the blade spindle and drive belt.
The self-propelled model includes an upper
guard that covers the wheel drive
components. Both guards attach in the same
manner using similar hardware.
To remove a guard:
1. Shut off unit.
2. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug.
3. Unscrew two hex bolts from mounting
brackets and remove guard.
Each mounting bolt includes a captive flat
washer and nyloc nut. The captive nut
prevents the bolt from separating from the
guard. The mounting bolt secures to a
weldnut on the back of each mounting
bracket.
To install a guard:
1. Position guard on mower and slide bolts
with captive nyloc nuts into mounting
brackets.
2. Thread each mounting bolt into
mounting bracket and tighten securely.
3. Connect spark plug wire to spark plug.
