material provided by Wright Manufacturing, Inc. before using or allowing others to operate the equipment. DO NOT operate this unit unless you carefully read, understand and follow the operation and safety instructions contained in this manual and the warning decals provided on the unit. DO NOT allow other persons to use this unit unless you make sure they carefully read, understand and follow these instructions. Never allow children to operate or play on the unit. WARNING 1.
1.10 Prevent Fires WARNING Machine fires and structural fires can occur if a machine is stored before allowing it to cool, if debris is not removed from critical areas of the machine, or if the machine is stored near combustible materials. • Remove grass and debris completely from engine compartment and muffler area, and from on top of the mower deck, before and after operating machine, especially after mowing or mulching in dry conditions. • Always shut off fuel when storing or transporting.
• DO NOT allow inexperienced persons to operate the mower until they have read and understood these safety instructions. Operate the mower at slower speeds while becoming familiar with it. • The grass discharge chute deflector must be installed at all times and in the down position except that it may be raised when cleaning out the deck, or a grass catcher is installed or a mulch kit and block-off plate is properly installed.
1.17 Operation on Slopes WARNING DO NOT operate on steep slopes. DO NOT operate the mower on slopes steeper than you can feel secure about the traction of the tires and the stability of the mower. DO NOT operate the mower on slopes at all when the grass is wet. There is a danger of suddenly sliding sideways or down the hill. DO NOT mow near drop-offs or near water. When operating on a slope, travel across the grade whenever possible, not in an up or down pattern.
WARNING 1.19 Hydraulic Safety Use paper or cardboard and not hands to search for leaks. Keep body and hands away from pin holes or fittings that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Hydraulic fluid escaping under high pressure may have sufficient force to penetrate skin and cause serious injury. If foreign fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result. Seek medical attention immediately.
2 Warning, Safety and Instructional Decals • • • • Specific safety warning decals are located on the equipment near immediate areas of potential hazards. Keep all safety signs legible.

5 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING If you are not completely familiar with the Safety Instruction Manual read it now before proceeding with the operation of the mower. REMEMBER THERE ARE CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS MANUAL THAT YOU MUST NOW TAKE BEFORE STARTING THE MOWER. 5.1 Inspect Mower Before Each Use Inspection of Mower: Do not use the mower if any parts are not maintained in good operating condition. Examine all moving parts prior to each use.
the operation of the hand controls and the mower’s behavior. After gaining a good feel for how the mower handles, gradually attempt higher engine speeds until familiar with operation at full throttle engine speed. 5.4 How to Stop and Park the Mower Come to a complete stop. If the blades are on, turn them off using the switch on the instrument panel. Make sure the control levers are in the exact neutral position.
5.6 Mowing on Varying Terrain See the Safety Instructions section of this manual, especially the parts on: • Initial Operating Safety Guidelines • Operation On Slopes • Operation In Reverse • Operation In Forward Direction • Operation During Zero-Radius Turns 5.7 How to Adjust Neutral Neutral refers to the mower movement when the engine is set to full throttle, parking brake is off, and the control levers are in the neutral position. The mower should not move forward or backward during this time.
can feel, in the hand control, that the internal pump stop has been contacted. Then shorten the rod one turn (damage to the hydro pump will occur if the controls are adjusted in a way that put direct pressure on the internal pump stop). You will feel the slight resistance. There is no need to start the engine while checking this incrementally. Remember, this procedure does not apply if the Speed/ Sensitivity Adjustment is in the slower setting.
6 Service and Adjustments 6.1 Tire Maintenance and Pressure WARNING Excessively worn tire tread is dangerous on all hills. Replace drive tires with less than 3/32” of any tread groove left. Use tires with the tread pattern recommended by Wright Mfg., Inc. only. Keep the tire pressure in the drive tires between 18 and 24 psi. Higher pressures will cause the tires to have less traction which will force you to go slower and with less safety and give you a harder ride.
6.3.2 Replacing the Cutter Deck Belts • • • • Stop engine and remove the key and wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove deck covers Remove belt by using a ½” ratchet and extension to relieve belt tension. Reinstall in reverse order. Figure shows belt routing and spring compression direction. 6.4 How to Move the Mower if the Engine Won’t Start Rotate both of the hydro bypass valves on the side of each hydraulic pump about ½ turn counterclockwise. It is important not to over tighten these.
6.7 Bleeding Air from the Hydraulic System Whenever servicing the hydraulic system, it is of the utmost importance to keep any dirt or debris from getting into the system. Clean off all parts before disassembly and assembly. When any of the hydraulic parts are disconnected or removed or when the oil is changed, air must be bled from the system. If air is entrained in the system, loss of power, excessive heat, and damage to the hydraulic pumps may occur.
6.10 Battery Service The battery is 12 volts and is a maintenance free battery. Charge the battery only if it will not start the mower effectively. Remove the battery from the mower before charging. Follow the instructions of the battery charger for proper and safe charging of the battery. Always make sure the Positive terminal is connected to the Positive battery post and the Negative terminal is connected to the Negative battery post. Reversal could cause damage to the electrical system. 1.
6.14 Loading and Unloading WARNING Use extreme caution when loading and unloading units on/off trailers or trucks. One full width ramp that extends beyond the rear tires is recommended rather than individual ramps for each side of the unit. The ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the trailer or truck does not exceed 15 degrees. A steeper angle may cause the mower deck components to get caught as the unit moves from ramp to trailer or truck.
