careful not to lose the small flat washers found
on the pin). See Figure 21.
• Remove the drive pedal return spring.
• Using two 9/16" wrenches, remove the pin

Thread the idler adjustment rod inward or outward to
lengthen or shorten the travel of the double idler
bracket until proper adjustment is achieved.
• Reassemble by following the above steps in
reverse order.
BATTERY
The battery is sealed and is maintenance-free. Acid
levels cannot be checked.
• Always keep the battery cables and terminals
clean and free of corrosive build-up.
• After cleaning the battery and terminals, apply
a light coat of petroleum jelly or grease to the
terminals and over the positive terminal boot.
• Always keep the boot positioned over the
positive terminal to prevent shorting.
IMPORTANT: If removing the battery for any
reason, disconnect the NEGATIVE (Black) wire from
it's terminal first, followed by the POSITIVE (Red)
wire. When re-installing the battery, always connect
the POSITIVE (Red) wire its terminal first, followed
by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire. Be certain that the
wires are connected to the correct terminals.
reversing them could change the polarity and cause
damage to your engine's alternating system.
Charging
If the unit has not been put into use for an extended
period of time, charge the battery with a 12-volt
automotive-type charger at six amps for a minimum
of one hour (or until fully charged).
WARNING: Batteries give off an
explosive gas during and for some time
after charging. Charge battery in a well
ventilated area and do not allow a spark or
an open flame near the battery.
FUSE
A fuse is installed in your tractor's wiring harness to
protect the tractor's electrical system from damage
caused by excessive amperage. Always use the
same capacity fuse for replacement. If the electrical
system does not function, or your tractor's engine
will not crank, first check to be certain that the fuse
has not blown.
It can be found under the hood mounted behind the
top of dash panel on the support bar. Pull the fuse
from its holder and compare it with Figure 22 to
determine if it is good or bad.
