Checklist at time of purchase.

FIGURE 1
ACTIVATE BATTERY
The battery is not installed and is shipped dry. Allow
sufficient time for charging and installing the battery
before operating the tractor. Pay close attention to the
precautionary statements on the battery and in these
instructions. Electrolyte must be purchased separately

automotive type battery charger to activate the battery for
use.

the two seat knobs that secure it to rear fender. See
Figure 1.

2. Place battery in a well ventilated area on a level
surface.
INSTRUCTION No. 7-2348 (I.R. 6/13/02)
WARNING
The electrolyte (acid) produces a highly explosive
gas. Keep all sparks, flame and fire away from area
when charging battery or when handling electrolyte
or battery. Electrolyte (acid) is a highly corrosive
liquid. Wear eye protection. Wash affected areas
immediately after having eye or skin contact with
electrolyte (acid). Flush with clear water and neutralize
with baking soda. DO NOT OVER FILL!
3. Remove battery cell caps. Fill cells as required with
electrolyte (purchased separately) to proper level.
Fill to 3/16” above cell plates. Filling battery with
electrolyte will bring the battery to 80% charged
state.
Note:3/16” above cell plates is the recommended level.
DO NOT place anything in battery other than
specified electrolyte.

4. With cell caps removed, connect battery charger to
battery terminals; RED to positive (+) and BLACK to
negative (-) terminal.
5. If time allows, slow charge at 1 amp for 10 hours, or
as an alternative, fast charge at not more than 2.5
amps for 4 hours to bring the battery to full charge.
NOTE: Slow charging is recommended and extends
battery life.
6. After charging, check level of electrolyte and add as
needed to bring level to 3/16” above cell plates.
7. Reinstall cell caps.
WARNING
Keep sparks and flames away from battery at all times!
Battery acid is corrosive. Rinse empty acid containers
with water and mutilate before discarding. If acid is
spilled on battery, bench, or clothing, etc., flush with clear
water and neutralize with baking soda or ammonia
solution.
STEP 3: BATTERY INSTALLATION
1. Carefully place the charged battery, with terminals
toward front of tractor as shown on decal, in the
tractor battery compartment. See Figure 1.
2. Retrieve plastic bag from under the hood, on top of
gas tank. Remove nuts and bolts from plastic
hardware bag.
3. Connect positive (+) cable (red) from wiring harness
to the positive terminal (+) on battery using bolt and
nut provided in hardware bag.
4. Connect negative (-) cable (black) to negative
terminal (-) on battery using bolt and nut.
Note:Shield the positive terminal with terminal cover
located on battery harness. This prevents metal
from touching the positive terminal which could
cause sparks.
5. Reinstall seat/pedestal assembly and tighten seat
knobs securely. DO NOT operate tractor without
the seat/pedestal assembly installed properly
because it serves as the battery hold down.
STEP 4: STEERING WHEEL INSTALLATION
1. Place steering wheel over steering shaft located on
tractor. Align hole in steering shaft with holes in
steering wheel and insert roll pin. Tap roll pin with
hammer gently through steering wheel and shaft
until roll pin is centered on the shaft. Do not use
excessive force! (See Figure 2)
FIGURE 2
Step 5: REDUCE TIRE PRESSURE

pressure in front tires to 12 PSI and in rear tires to
12 PSI.

STEP 6: INSTALL OPERATOR’S SEAT
Some models are shipped with the seat, hinge rod and
hair pin already installed. On those models verify all seat
hardware is tight and that the hair pin is inserted fully into
the hinge rod hole. See Figure 4. All models will require
the installation of the two seat cushions.
1. To install the seat, remove hair pin from hinge rod and
slide hinge rod from seat pedestal. See Figure 3.
2. Check seat bolts to insure hinge plate is tightened
securely to the bottom of the seat. See Figure 3.
3. Align hinge plate with the seat pedestal assembly
and insert hinge rod. See Figure 3.
FIGURE 3
IMPORTANT: Hinge rod must protrude past both
sides of the hinge plate and be positively retained by
the hair pin.
4. Insert hair pin fully into hinge rod. The hair pin
must be in the hinge pin hole completely. See Figure 4.
FIGURE 4
5. Check for 5/16” flat washer under head of each
seat knob. Install washer, if missing, and tighten
securely. See Figure 5.
6. Install seat cushions by pushing into receptacles
located in seat pedestal. Seat must move freely on
hinge and depress cushions. See Figure 5.
FIGURE 5
