Optional Front Roller Installation (Figure 26)
The optional front roller is designed to carry the center
of the mower over uneven ground, minimizing scalping.
Front roller mounting brackets use the four mounting
bolts of the gear stand.
Remove the gear stand front mounting bolts. Hole pat-
terns in the mounting brackets (1 & 2) determine right
and left. Position these brackets with the highest hole
to the rear, the middle hole forward, and the bracket
angle outward as shown.
Attach brackets with the carriage bolts (3) and flange
locknuts (7) provided with the front roller kit.
Place roller (5) between the brackets and insert rod (6)
through brackets and roller, securing with cotter pins
(4).
