ASSEMBLY
HYDRAULIC TANK INSTALLATION
Install all fittings and tubes into tank and tank filter as shown in the parts section
illustration. Insert tank sight glass into front side of tank. Install the temperature sensor
(optional), or pipe plug into side of the tank.
Place the tank in the mounting bracket on the main frame as shown in the parts
section. Secure the tank in the mounting bracket with the tank strap and nylock nuts.
Install the filter gauge into the filter housing so that it points to the rear of the tractor
and is clearly visible to the operator. Locate the tank breather and reducer bushing
(bushing may be already installed in the tank along with many of the for-mentioned
parts). These will be installed after tank is filled.
FILLING HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR
Refer to the maintenance section for filling specifications and hydraulic oil
requirements.
NOTE: Starting or running your Tiger mower before filling reservoir will cause
serious damage to hydraulic pump.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE MOUNTING
(OPTIONAL)
Mount the temperature gauge where it is clearly visible to the operator. Attach the
green (-) wire from the negative post on the gauge to a grounded bolt on the tractor
frame. Remove paint if needed to make a good ground. Remove the pipe plug from the
side of the hydraulic reservoir, and install the temperature sensor using thread sealing
tape. Run the white wire from the (s) sensor post of the gauge to the temperature
sensor on the hydraulic reservoir tank.
