DECK LUBRICATION
• After every 10 hours of operation and/or before
putting the deck into winter storage, lubricate
the spindle assemblies with a No. 2
multipurpose lithium grease. The lube fittings
are located in the spindle housing and can be
accessed from underneath the deck.
REPLACING THE DECK DRIVE BELT
• Remove the deck from beneath the tractor, (refer
to Deck Removal on page 28).
• Remove the hex tapping screws securing the belt
covers to the deck and remove the belt from the
spindle pulleys. Refer to Figure 36.
• Depending on which deck (42" or 50") you are
working on, install the new belt around the
spindle pulleys as shown in the applicable
graphic of Figure 36. Reinstall the belt covers.
• Route the belt rearward between the two idler
pulleys and reinstall the deck following the
