2-10 Attachment Of The Boot To The
Mower Deck
Remove the mower’s deflector shield mount (Figure 20).
Position the notch towards the front of unit and place the
boot hanger P#(B0117) in-between the deflector shield
mount and the mower deck. Fasten by using (3) 3/8”-16
x 1-1/4” HHCS P#(K1192) and the existing 3/8” nuts. The
boot hanger will allow you to switch from collection to
discharge in seconds.
To mount the boot plate P#(B0204) to the boot
P#(E1034) use (3) 3/8”-16 x 1” carriage bolts P#(K1182)
and (3) 3/8”-16 flange nuts P#(K1215).
To mount the boot plate P#(B0190) to the boot
P#(E1113) use (2) 3/8”-16 x 3/4” carriage bolts
P#(K1181) and (2) 3/8”-16 flange nuts P#(K1215).
When bolting the boot and boot plate together,
the head of the bolt is placed from the inside of the boot.
This will prevent grass from collecting on the bolts.
Remove the bolts from that hold the deflector shield in
place so that the boot rod can fasten the boot and boot
plate to the mower deck. Align the holes in the boot plate
to the holes in the deflector shield mount and slide the
boot rod, P#(B2540) for the 60” Deck and P#(B0189) for
the 52” deck, through and fasten by using (1) hair pin
clip P#(K0099).
