HYDRAULIC PUMP DRIVE BELT
REPLACEMENT
1. Park the rider on a smooth, level surface such as a
concrete floor. Disengage the PTO, engage the
parking brake, turn off the engine, and remove the
ignition key.
2. Remove the PTO drive belt (see MOWER BELT
REPLACEMENT for removal instructions).
3. Loosen the nut towards the front of the machine on
the spring anchor hook (H, Figure 38) to release
the majority of the belt tension. Use caution and
remove the nut to completely release the tension.
4. Remove the old belt and replace it with the new
one. Make sure the V-side of the belt runs in the
grooves of the crankshaft pulley and pump pulleys
(B & C).
5. Reinstall the anchor hook (H) into the anchor tab
and loosely fasten the nut. Adjust the spring until a
measurement of 7-3/4" (19,7cm) is achieved from
the outside of the spring hooks. Tighten nut.

BATTERY CHARGING
A dead battery or one too weak to start the engine
may be the result of a defect in the charging system or
other electrical component. If there is any doubt about
the cause of the problem, see your dealer. If you need
to replace the battery, follow the steps under Cleaning
the Battery & Cables in the Regular Maintenance
Section.
To charge the battery, follow the instructions provided
by the battery charger manufacturer as well as all
warnings included in the safety rules sections of this
book. Charge the battery until fully charged. Do not
charge at a rate higher than 10 amps.
A: WARNING
Keep open flames and sparks away from the
battery; the gasses coming from it are highly
explosive. Ventilate the battery well during
charging.
