Adjusting Self-Leveling Seat (SDL Models) Disengaging the self-leveling seat lock will allow the seat to rotate and level while mowing on mild slopes. See Figure 2-19. The "Locked" position is shown. Figure 2-19 To disengage the self-leveling seat lock: 1. Park the tractor on a level surface. 2. Rotate the lever 180° counter-clockwise. 3. Release the j-pin allowing it to rest in a detent, enabling the seat's selflevelling feature. To engage the self-leveling seat lock: 1. Park the tractor on a level surface. 2. Rotate the lever 180° clockwise, and release. Note: The seat will lock into place in its neutral (center position) under spring pressure once properly aligned. Checking Tire Pressure WARNING Maximum tire pressure under any circumstances is 12 psi on rear tires and 25 psi on front tires. Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times. Inflation Pressure Rear Tires - 10-12 psi max Front Tires - 20-25 psi max The tires on your tractor may be over-inflated for shipping purposes. Reduce the tire pressure before operating the tractor. Recommended operating tire pressure is 10-12 psi on rear tires and 20-25 psi on front tires. Lubrication & Grease Points Before operating the tractor, refer to the Product Care section of this manual to check the lubrication and grease points. Grease and lubricate if necessary. Connecting the Battery Cables WARNING California PROPOSITION 65: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. CAUTION When attaching battery cables, always connect the POSITIVE (Red) wire to its terminal first, followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire. For shipping reasons, both battery cables on your equipment may have been left disconnected from the terminals at the factory. To connect the battery cables, proceed as follows: Lithium-Ion Battery (SD Models) 1. Using the lever on the back of the seat frame, lift up on the lever and tilt the seat forward locking it in place with the seat prop. Remove the bolts and hex nuts from the manual bag. Note: The positive battery terminal is marked POS. (+) (a). The negative battery terminal is marked NEG. (-) (b). See Figure 2-20. Note: If the positive cable grouping (c) is already attached, skip ahead to Step 6. See Figure 2-20. 2. Locate the cables routed through the conduit along the inward facing side of the battery and separate the positive and negative groupings (each group will be zip-tied together). 3. Slide the red boot (d), if present, back along the positive cable grouping. See Figure 2-20. 4. Attach the positive cable grouping (c), positive cable for the electric deck lift (if equipped) and positive cable for the 12V outlet (if equipped) to the positive battery terminal (a) with the bolt (e) and hex nut (f). See Figure 2-20. Note: Place the thickest cable closest to the battery terminal. (f) (g) (b) (f) (e) (c) (d) (a) (e) Figure 2-20 5. Position the red boot (d) over the positive battery terminal (a) to insulate it and help protect it from corrosion. 6. Attach the negative cable grouping (g), negative cable for the electric deck lift (if equipped) and negative cable for the 12V outlet (if equipped) to the negative battery terminal (b) with the bolt (e) and hex nut (f). See Figure 2-20. Note: Place the thickest cable closest to the battery terminal. Note: If the battery is put into service after the date shown on top/side of battery, charge the battery prior to operating the machine. AGM Battery (SDL Models) 1. Using the lever on either side of the back of the seat, lift up on the lever and tilt the seat forward locking it in place with the seat prop. Remove the bolts and hex nuts from the manual bag. Note: The positive battery terminal is marked POS. (+) (a). The negative battery terminal is marked NEG. (-) (b). See Figure 2-21. Note: If the positive battery cable (c) is already attached, skip ahead to Step 4. 2. Slide the red boot (d) from the positive battery terminal (a) and attach the red cable (c), with the vertical mount bolt (e). See Figure 2-21. (e) (e) (a) (f) (b) (c) (d) Figure 2-21 3. Position the red boot (d) over the positive battery terminal (a) to insulate it and help protect it from corrosion. 4. Attach the black cable (f), to the negative battery terminal (b) with the vertical mount bolt (e). See Figure 2-21. Note: If the battery is put into service after the date shown on top/side of battery, charge the battery prior to operating the machine. Section 2 - Assembly & Set-Up 11
