quick adjustment seat. See Figure 2 and 4 to identify
which seat is on your unit. Follow the instructions which
apply to your garden tractor.

seat pivot bracket. Turn the seat around and place in
position against the seat pivot bracket, lining up the
slotted holes in the pivot bracket with the holes in the
seat. Select desired position for the seat, and secure
with the four screws. See Figure 2.

ATTACHING THE DECK LINKS
(Hardware A)
The three adjustable deck links have been shipped
unassembled. Attach as follows.
•
Start 1/2" hex nuts on eyebolts until nuts are
flushed with ends of eyebolts. See Figure 5.
•
Insert eyebolts and hex nuts into the adjustable lift
links located under the tractor. See Figure 5.
•
Thread eyebolts into the lift links and hex nuts. The
left rear link should be adjusted so the eyebolt
hangs about 3-1/2 inches below the lift link. The two
front links should be adjusted so the eyebolts hang
about 2-1/8 inches below the lift links. See Figure 5.
