REMOVING THE CUTTING DECK
See Figures 14 - 16.
If desired, the cutting deck can be removed from the mower
to make accessing the blades easier when changing.
WARNING:
Wear heavy gloves at all times while handling the cutting
deck. Keep hands and fingers clear of pinch points.
Move the mower to a level surface. Make sure the blade
engage knob is down.
Stop the motor, remove the start key, and set the park-
ing brake.
Move the deck height adjustment lever to the deck re-
lease position.
Disconnect the power cables that connect the cutting
deck to the mower.
NOTE: The RYRM8006 will have two power cables and
RYRM8007 will have three.
Pull the deck release handle out and rotate toward the
back of the mower.
Repeat on the opposite side of the mower.
Lift the deck and slide forward to detach the deck clip
from the J-hook.
Slide the deck out from under the mower.
Reverse the process to reattach the cutting deck to the
mower.
NOTE: Reconnect two power cables for the RYRM8006
and three for the RYRM8007.
