ALL UNITS:
3.3.21 Mount the blower on the deck by sliding the mounting pin into the tube at the rear
right corner of the deck. Swing the blower closed. Adjust the position of the front
pin to engage the slot in the front of the deck. Use the latch to lock the blower in
this position. Adjust the tension on the latch to hold the blower up to the deck, yet
allow for release by hand.
3.3.22 Pull the spring loaded idler back and slip the belt over the top sheave on the deck
spindle.
3.3.23 Install the plastic belt cover (Item 10). On 60” units the outside end of the cover is
slotted and can slip between the two washers assembled in step 17. The plastic
knob does not need to be removed. On 72” and 52” units the cover has a hole,
and the plastic knob must be installed after the cover has been positioned. The
original belt cover stud must be removed on 52” units.
3.4 ASSEMBLE THE TUBES
3.4.1 Remove the six screws, nuts, and washers (Items 4, 5, and 6) from the lower tube
(Item 3) and slide the lower and upper tube (Item 2) together. The arrow on the
upper tube should align with the dimple on the lower tube. On 60 and 72 inch
units there are two sets of holes on the lower tube. The first set reached is for
use with Lazer XP units. The second set reached is for Lazer Z units. Align the
arrow on the upper tube with the dimple on the lower tube and slide them together
until the proper set of holes is reached.
3.4.2 Fasten the upper and lower tubes together using three of the hardware sets
removed from the lower tube in step 14. The heads of the screws must be inside
the tube to prevent accumulation of grass inside the tube. The washer and the nut
should be installed on the outside of the tube. On Lazer XP units, use the
remaining three hardware sets to plug the exposed holes in the lower tube. On
Lazer Z units, discard the remaining hardware sets.
3.4.3 Slip the upper end of the tube assembly into the hood opening. Slide the lower
end of the tube assembly over the blower outlet and align the notch with the tube
latch. Latch the tube to the blower.
3.5 INSTALL THE WEIGHT PLATES
3.5.1 The four weight plates (Item 35) must be installed under the front panel of the
floor pan. These weights give proper balance to the machine when the
removable portions of the bagger are removed.
