CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Adjustment of the drive system is limited to the actual function of the

hydrostatic transmissions as outlined below.

T-BOX TO HYDROSTAT BELT ADJUSTMENT:

Tighten the (2) J-bolts on the T-box mounting plate until

each belt has 1/8th to 1/4th of free play or move-

ment at a mid-point between the pulleys on the

hydrostats and T-Box.

Each hydrostat has a bypass relief pin located at the

rear of the hydrostatic unit. A bypass keeper is

provided to allow the mower to be rolled around without

engine running. To accomplish this, the bypass keeper

spring must be positioned to depress the bypass relief

pins. Remove bypass keeper springs prior to actual

operation of the mower.
