Move the cable away from the negative battery post. • Repeat the a bove procedure to remove the cable and cover from t he positive battery post (marked POS).
31 TRACTORS WITH HAZARD LIGHTS Hazard lights are installed on each sid e of the ROPS. To replace the bulbs proceed as follows: • Insert a thin bladed screwdriver, or similar tool, between an amber lense and the hazard light body, then twist t o separate the lense from th e body.
32 Tractors with Electric Fuse Center Instrument Panel Fuses The instrument p anel’s circuitry is protected by th e two fuses in the fu se center. If the in strument pa nel does not function p roperly, check the fuses. Pull the two fu ses from the fu se center an d check their condition.
33 CHECKING TRAN SMISSION / HYDRAULIC SYSTEM OIL LEVEL Check the hydro transmission /hydraulic system oil level before e ach use. NOTE: Check the oil level only while the engi ne is stopped and the tractor is standing on a level surface.
34 • Remove the old hydrostatic filter by turning it counterclockwise, and immed iately replace with the new filter . Turn the filter clockwise by ha nd until the gaske t contacts the f ilter base ; then tighten th e filter an additional 1/2 to 3/4 t urn.
35 • Place a suitable co ntainer(s) beneath the front of the transmission housing. • Remove the oil fill plug to help vent the trans- mission, then remove the drain plug and allow the transmission oil to drain into the con- tainer(s). Reinstall t he drain plug after drainin g the oil.
36 W AR NING: Wh en seating t he beads , never inflate a tire over 35 PSI. Inflat- ing a tire with unseate d beads beyond 35 PSI could break the bead or rim with sufficient explosive force to ca use a serious injury. • Inflate the tire to sea t the bea ds.
37 Emptying the fuel system: • Prior to putt ing the tractor in storag e, monitor fuel consumption with the go al of running the fuel tank empty. • If a large volume of fuel is left-o ver, the fuel line can be disconne cted at the fuel filter and the leftover fu el drained into an approved container.

43 SECTION 6: MODELS WITH FACT ORY INSTALLED 60" MOWER DEC K This section applies only to those models with the factory equippe d 60 inch mower deck.
44 Front To Back Leveling The front to back pitc h of the deck is normally determined by the deck wheels when the deck is operated as designe d with its wheels on the ground. However, the deck p itch should be checked to ensur e an even cut when mowing un even terrain, or when mowing with the deck wheels off the ground.
45 SETTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT The deck cutting height is set by posit ioning the left and rig ht caster wheel axles in one of the five index hole setting s of the deck height adjustment bra cket. The index hole settings range in 1/2 inch increments from a cuttin g height of approximat ely 1-1/2 inch es (top hole) to 3- 1/2 inches (b ottom hole).
