WARNING
The Wright Stander is shipped completely as-
sembled and has been adjusted and tested at the
factory. However, due to the jostling of the ship-
ping process and the amount of time elapsed
since this was done at the factory until you re-
ceived the machine the following items need to
be repeated again before starting the mower.
After you have un-crated the mower
follow these
procedures in the order indicated:
Remove spark plug wire from spark plug(s)
Inspect the mower for any damage, unusual
conditions or missing parts.
Inspect the mower for all of its decals, espe-
cially the warning decals. There should be
one blade warning decal on each side of
the deck, the “shield missing” under the
blade belt cover, the dash decal, the
“shield missing” decal behind the pump
pulley and belt guard over the operator’s
toe area.
Check (and fill if necessary) engine oil level
according to the engine manufacturer’s
recommendation.
Check (and fill if necessary) hydraulic fluid
level. The level should be about 3"-4"
below the top of the oil fill. Use synthetic
oil: Mobil 1 10W-30 or AmsOil 10W-40.
Check rear tire pressure. 8 to 12 psi. is
recommended. It should be even on both
sides. Use the higher pressures for heavier
operators. Set the tire pressure in the front
caster tires between 35 and 46 psi. Higher
pressures will help keep the caster tires on
their rims when impacted from the side but
give a harder ride.
Remove the blade belt cover and check (and
tighten if necessary) all belt tensions ac-
cording to specifications further in this
manual. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Rotate the blade pulleys slightly to see if they
rotate freely and all turn together.
Lubricate all moving parts (see Maintenance
Items section of this manual).
Replace the blade belt cover.
Remove battery (if electric start version) from
machine and fully charge in an open, well
ventilated area according to the recommen-
dations of the battery charger manual. The
battery is 12 volts. After fully charged, install
on mower and attach battery cables, posi-
tive first (from starter motor) and negative
last (from ground).
Fill fuel tank with regular unleaded gasoline.
Open fuel valve under gas tank.
DO NOT START THE ENGINE AT THIS
TIME. FOLLOW THE NEXT PROCEDURE
BEFORE STARTING. The hydraulic sys-
tem MUST be checked for proper opera-
tion before allowing wheels to operate on
the ground.
Set the rear of the machine on jack stands or
blocks to raise rear wheels off of the
ground two or three inches and check that
the mower will not fall off the supports you
devise. (Do not support the mower's
weight on any part of the foot platform).
You must be able to stand on the mower.
The stand(s) must be able to secure the
mower from rolling off or away during the
next procedures. Check under the mower
deck for any debris or unusual conditions.
With hand controls in the middle or neutral
position, apply the parking brake.
Open the manual valves on top of each motor
a half-of-a-turn counterclockwise.
Reattach spark plug wires to spark plugs.
Before starting the engine be ready to stop it
if the wheels begin to turn with the brake
on. (If this happens, check that the manual
valves on top of each motor are open at
least a half-of-a-turn counterclockwise.)
Start the engine according to the engine
manufacturer’s recommendation. Let the
engine run at low RPM for several minutes
to get the hydraulic fluid circulating through
the pumps, etc. While standing on the foot
platform, release the parking brake. Now
