Usea 15A6" wrench to hold the hex nut on top of the spindle
assembly when loosening the hex nut securing the blade.
A block of wood may be placed between the deck housing
and the cutting edge of the blade to help in breaking loose
the hex nut securing the blade. See Fig. 7-7.

3. When reinstalling the blades, be sure they are installed so that
the wings are pointing upward toward the top of the deck.

5. Reinstall the deck (refer to Deck Installation on page 28).
Transmission DriveBelt
If the transmission drive belt becomes worn and causes the drive
transmissions to slip, the drive belt must be replaced. To replace
the drive belt, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the deck drive belt from the PTOclutch on the bottom
of the engine following the instructions in Deck Removal.
2. From beneath the rear of the tractor, insert a %" drive ratchet
into the square hole of the drive idler bracket. SeeFig. 7-8.

3. Using the ratchet for leverage, pivot the idler bracket and idler
pulley away from the backside of the 'V" belt; then lift the belt
offand above the engine pulley and offthe idler pulley.

transmission drive pulleys. Remove the belt from the
engine and idler pulleys.
5. Loop the new belt and slide over and onto the two
transmission pulleys.
6. Route the belt above the idler bracket back to the engine
drive pulley. Lift the belt over the PTOpulley and above the
engine drive pulley.
7. Using the ratchet for leverage, pivot the idler bracket and
idler pulley against the spring tension; then slip the belt
down into the engine drive pulley and onto the idler pulley.
8. Releasethe idler bracket so that the idler pulley tightens
against the back side of the belt and tensions the drive belt.
9. Reinstall the deck drive belt.
TractorCreeping
Creeping is the slight forward or backward movement of the
tractor when the engine is running at high idle and the drive
control levers are opened out in the neutral position.
If after operating the tractor for some time, it begins to creep
while in the neutral position, adjust the transmission control rods
as follows.
1. Place the front of the tractor against an immovable object
(e.g. wall, post, etc.).
2. Jack up the rear of the tractor so that both rear wheels are
approximately one inch of the ground.
3. With the engine running at high idle and the drive control
levers opened out in the neutral position, and the parking
brake disengaged, check the rear wheels for rotation.
4. If only one wheel is rotating, locate the transmission
control rod beneath the frame at the front of the rear tire. If
both wheels rotate, locate both control rods. See Fig. 7-9.
