Be certain to clamp or securely support the gearbox and sub-assemblies to prevent injuries
to hands and feet due to inadvertent dropping or falling over.
Always wear safety glasses and gloves to prevent eye and hand injury when chiseling or
hammering on metal components. Hardened metal will chip unexpectedly.
An assembled gearbox is quite heavy. Use a hoist or get help to handle them safely. Lift
carefully and properly using your legs to lift - not your back.
NOTICE: Refer to operator’s manual for instructions for proper re-assembly onto the mower deck. Tighten
correctly.
