Attaching The Seat
If the seat for your tractor was not attached at the factory, refer
to the following steps.
NOTE: For shipping reasons, seats are either fastened to the
tractor seat’s pivot bracket with a plastic tie, or mounted
backward to the pivot bracket. In either case, free the seat from
its shipping position and remove the adjustment knob from the
bottom of seat before proceeding with the instructions below.
Position the shoulder screws (found on the base of the 1.
seat) inside the slot openings in the seat pivot bracket.

Slide the seat slightly rearward in the seat pivot bracket, 2.
lining up the center rear slot in the pivot bracket with the
remaining hole in the seat’s base.
Select desired position for the seat, and secure with the
3.
adjustment knob removed earlier.
To adjust the position of the seat on models so equipped,
4.
loosen the adjustment knob on the bottom of the seat.
Slide the seat forward or backward as desired. Retighten
the adjustment knob.

wheel, beneath the steering wheel cap. Carefully pry off the
steering wheel cap and remove the hardware.
With the wheels of the tractor pointing straight forward, 1.
