7. After engine starts, leave cables connected for one to two minutes.
8. Disconnect cables in reverse order.
9. Operate unit as normal to charge battery.
ADJUSTMENTS
Steering Control Neutral AdjustmentIf the unit has excessive creep when the control levers are in neutral, adjust as follows. (Figure 13)
1. If hydraulic system is cold, run unit for a minimum of five minutes, then shut off unit.
2. Make sure both control levers are in neutral.
3. With the unit up to and facing a wall, jack the unit up so that both drive wheels are off the ground.
4. Have someone depress center of seat to actuate seat switch.
5. Start the engine and run at about half throttle or faster. Release parking brake.
6. Move the control levers from Forward to Reverse several times to make sure controls are free and check Neutral adjustment. If binding is found, correct it.
7. Minor adjustments may be made by simply adjusting the stop screw which contacts the lever on the pump. The screw may be turned in or out to bring the unit into neutral.
8. If major adjustment is needed, it is best to remove the front ball joint from the bottom of the control levers and turn the stop screw in or out until neutral is found.
9. Then, with the adjustable arms of the parking brake set so the clamping bolt is in the middle of the slot, adjust the ball joint on or off the control link rod so that their mounting bolts fit into the slot at the end of the adjustable interlock.
10.Reinstall the front ball joint(s).
NOTE: When properly adjusted, the parking brake inter-lock will move upward when the parking brake is set and hold the steering control levers in neutral. The parking brake starting interlock switch will not be depressed unless the steering control levers are in neutral. The interlock holds the levers in neutral until the parking brake is released.
11. Move the control levers, from forward to reverse several times to make sure it is adjusted to neutral. Readjust if necessary.
12. Stop the engine.
Adjusting Control LeversTo be done after neutral has been set. (Figure 13)
1. If desired the steering control levers can be set to match (be in line) when in neutral.
2. Remove front ball joint from bottom of steering control lever on side which is going to be adjusted. Screw ball joint on or off link rod to hydrostat so that control levers align. Replace rod end on lower part of steering control lever.
3. If needed adjust parking brake interlock so that interlock is able to move up when both steering control levers are in neutral. To do this loosen the clamping bolt on the adjustable member of the interlock and slide it in either direction until the interlock moves up and latches the ball joint mounting bolts.
WARNING: Make sure cables are clear of any moving engine parts before starting engine.
WARNING: This adjustment requires operation of the engine. Use extreme care to avoid contact with moving parts and hot surfaces. Be sure rear of unit is well supported and secure before starting engine.

Adjusting the Parking Brake1. The Parking Brake may be adjusted through the use
of the jam nuts on the brake rod which push against the compression spring which pushes on the caliper arm.
2. Turn the nuts further on the rod (clockwise) to tighten the brake and further off the rod (counter clockwise) to loosen the brake.
3. Ensure when the brake is applied, the caliper arm does not contact the return nuts on the rod in front of the caliper arm. If they do, back them off slightly.
4. When installing new pads in the calipers, they must be burnished by driving for a short distance (about 200 feet) with the brake on. To do this, bring the parking brake lever part-way up while driving normally (in a straight line). This quickly breaks-in the pads for maximum effectiveness.
Adjusting the unit to Track StraightCheck and adjust tire pressure. Increase pressure on side unit tracks to. DO NOT exceed maximum recommended tire pressure (refer to Specifications).
If tire pressure adjustment does not solve tracking problem, the limiter bolts at base of handles can be adjusted. Front bolts are for forward and rear bolts are for reverse. Lengthen bolts (move closer to lever) on side which is too fast.
Adjusting Anti-Scalp RollersThe anti-scalp rollers are set at the factory for typical mowing height, but can be adjusted for high or low cutting conditions.
Rollers are intended to prevent lawn scalping, not to control cutting height.
For a very high cutting height, set the rollers in their lowest position on the bracket.
For a very low cutting height, set the rollers in their highest position on the bracket.
All rollers should be set at the same height.
Leveling the Mower DeckThese adjustments should be made on a level surface with the tires inflated to the correct air pressure.
The mower is leveled from side to side with the slots where 4 chains fasten to the mower mounting brackets. The mower is leveled from front to rear by adjusting the rod running down each side of the frame (Figure 15).
1. Raise mower deck and insert 3" (7.6 cm) tall blocks to support deck.
2. Lower deck onto blocks so chains are slack.
3. Measure from bottom of mower blade end to ground.
4. Set hydraulic lift cylinder so cut of height reads the same as blade height measurement.
5. Loosen the locknuts on the side where the chains are slack and slide the bolt down the slot until the chain is tight.
6. Tighten bolt and nuts in mower mounting brackets.
7. Lift mower and remove blocks.
8. Measure height of deck at each side. Measurements must be within 1/16" (1.5 mm) of each other.
9. If measurements are out of range, fix by adjusting chains on low side of deck.
10.Once deck is level side to side, measure height of deck at middle of front and on both sides of rear. Front of deck should be 1/8" (3 mm) lower than rear.
11.To adjust, loosen rear hex nut of the front mower lift pivot on each rod.
12.Turn the front hex nut on each rod until mower is 1/8" (3 mm) lower in front.
NOTE: If mower cannot be leveled it may be necessary to loosen the rear nut of the rear mower lift pivot to get more threads at the front of rod for adjustment. After loos-ening rear nut and adjusting level, tighten front nut on rear mower lift pivot.
13.Tighten rear hex nut on each rod that was loosened in step 11.
