SAFETY
ACCIDENT PATTERNS TO AVOID
I. CONTACT WITH THE ROTATING BLADE -- This
accident usually happens when the operator is
clearing the discharge chute of grass, (especially
when the grass is wet), or when the operator
adjusts the machine without turning it off and
waiting for the blades to completely stop.
II. PROPELLED OBJECTS -- Sticks, rocks, wires,
and other objects can be propelled out through the
discharge chute or from under the deck housing.
Bystanders are particularly vulnerable.
III. GRASS CATCHER OR GUARD -- The mower
shall not be operated without either the entire
grass catcher or guard in place.
IV. OVERTURNING -- This happens when riding
mowers are used on steep slopes, embankments
or hills. The operator in these cases can come in
contact with the blades or sustain injuries during a
fall.
V. MOWER RUNNING OVER THE VICTIM -- This
usually happens when a riding mower is driven in
reverse. The accident victims are most often
young children whom, unseen by the operator of
the mower, were in the area being mowed.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. PEOPLE WHO OPERATE, SERVICE, OR ARE
OTHERWISE ASSOCIATED with the Country
Clipper Zero Turning Radius Mower should be
trained in its proper use and warned of its dangers.
Before operating, adjusting, or servicing the
Country Clipper Zero Turning Radius Mower they
should read and understand this entire manual and
the engine owner’s manual.
2. AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS. Keep
hands and feet from under mowing deck and away
from blades at all times. Turn engine (motor) off if
you must unclog the chute.
3. AVOID HILLS AND SLOPES. Use extreme
caution when mowing up or down slopes. NEVER
mow across the face of a slope. If a slope must
be ascended, back up the slope; drive forward
when descending. Reduce speed and use caution
to start, stop and maneuver. To prevent loss of
control on a slope avoid sharp turns, sudden
changes in direction, and sudden stops and starts.
4. DISENGAGE POWER TO MOWER BEFORE
BACKING UP. Do not mow in reverse unless
ABSOLUTELY necessary and then only after
turning around and observing the entire area
behind the mower. Go slowly. Most “running over
victim” accidents occur in reverse.
5. BEGINNING OPERATORS SHOULD LEARN
HOW TO STEER the Country Clipper Zero
Turning Radius Mower before attempting to mow.
Start with slow engine speed and drive without the
blades engaged in an open area until comfortable
with the machine.
6. KNOW HOW TO STOP QUICKLY. Know the
location and operation of every control, especially
how the brake and how to disengage the mower
blades.
7. DO NOT MOVE CONTROL LEVER(S) from
forward position to reverse position rapidly. The
speed and/or direction of travel is affected instantly
by movement of the Control Lever(s).
8. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE
MOWER. Do not allow others who have not had
instruction to operate mower.
9. ALWAYS TURN ENGINE OFF AND REMOVE
KEY before leaving the mower to prevent children
and inexperienced operators from starting the
engine. Never leave the mower unattended with
engine running. Always wait for all moving parts
and all sounds to stop before leaving operator’s
seat.
10. WEAR STURDY, ROUGH-SOLED WORK
SHOES AND CLOSE-FITTING SLACKS AND
SHIRTS. Never operate mower in bare feet,
sandals or sneakers.
11. NEVER CARRY PASSENGERS.
12. KNOW THE AREA YOU ARE TO MOW. Watch
for hidden danger such as rocks, roots, sticks,
holes, bumps, and drop-offs, etc. Before mowing,
pick up all debris in area to be mowed. Sharp and
hard objects can be propelled at a high speed and
can act like shrapnel. Walk through tall grass
BEFORE MOWING to make sure there are no
hidden dangers. Mow higher than desired in tall
grass to expose any hidden objects and/or
obstacles, clean the area, and then mow to the
desired height.
AT COUNTRY CLIPPER, WE SHARE YOUR
DESIRE TO PROTECT YOURSELF, YOUR
FAMILY, YOUR FRIENDS AND YOUR
NEIGHBORS FROM ACCIDENTAL INJURY.
OBSERVING AND ENFORCING THE
FOLLOWING GUIDELINES WILL HELP TO
ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL!

13. NEVER REFUEL A MOWER INDOORS. Allow
the engine time to cool before refueling. Unseen
vapors may be ignited by a spark. Always clean
up spilled gasoline. Never run the engine indoors
in a garage or any other closed building. Allow
engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
The engine exhaust and gasoline fumes are
dangerous.
14. NEVER REMOVE THE FUEL CAPor add
gasoline to a running or hot engine that has not
been allowed to cool for several minutes after
running. Always make sure the gas cap is in
place.
15. DO NOT SMOKE AROUND THE MOWER or the
gasoline storage container. Gasoline fumes can
easily ignite.
16. KEEP GASOLINE IN A WELL-VENTILATED
AREA away from your living quarters and in tightly-
capped safety cans. Never store mower with
gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes
may reach open flame or spark.
17. DISENGAGE BLADES, STOP ENGINE AND
REMOVE IGNITION KEY before any servicing. Be
sure all moving parts and all sounds have stopped.
Let engine cool and disconnect the spark plugs so
the engine cannot start by accident. A SLIGHT
ROTATION OF THE BLADES COULD START
THE ENGINE.
18. KEEP ALL NUTS, BOLTS, AND SCREWS TIGHT
to be sure equipment is in safe working condition,
especially blade mounting bolts.
19. VEHICLE SHOULD BE STOPPED AND
INSPECTED FOR DAMAGE after striking a
foreign object and the damage should be repaired
before restarting and operating the equipment.
Stop immediately and check for damage or loose
parts if mower should start vibrating.
20. DISENGAGE BLADES BEFORE DRIVING
ACROSS WALKS or projecting objects.
21 KEEP SAFETY DEVICES AND GUARDS IN

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. ENGINE:
For complete maintenance and operating
information for your engine, please refer to your
engine operating and maintenance instructions
furnished by the engine manufacturer and included
in your Country Clipper Zero Turning Radius
Mower information packet.
NOTE: Air intake screen must be kept clean. If
plugged, engine may be seriously damaged by
overheating.
2. BATTERY:
CAUTION
BATTERY ELECTROLYTE IS A POISONOUS AND
CORROSIVE SULFURIC ACID SOLUTION. AVOID
SPILLING ON SKIN, EYES, AND CLOTHING.
Keep the electrolyte level above the plates in each
cell by adding distilled water as it becomes
necessary. Add water just before operating the
mower to mix the water with the solution. Be
careful not to overfill the battery -- the electrolyte
solution is corrosive and can cause damage to
surrounding metal parts if it should spill. When
taking the battery out of the mower for servicing,
make sure to connect the cables to the battery
exactly as they were prior to removal. Always
disconnect the ground ( - ) wire first and always
reconnect the ground ( - ) wire last.
Keep the battery clean. Remove the corrosion
around the battery terminals by applying a solution
of one part baking soda to four parts water. Coat
all exposed terminal surfaces with a light layer of
grease or petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
NOTE: At temperatures below 32 degrees F
(0 degrees C) the full charge state must be
maintained to prevent cell electrolyte from
freezing and causing permanent battery
damage.
3. TIRES:
Correct tire pressure is essential for efficient
operation of the mower. Check tire pressure as
requested in the maintenance schedule. Inflate
tires to the pressures listed below:
Lug nuts should be checked regularly for tightness.
4. MOWER BLADES:
Check sharpness of mower blades after every 10
hours of operation. To sharpen blades proceed as
follows:
CAUTION
STOP ENGINE, REMOVE IGNITION KEY
FOR SAFETY.
A. Remove bolt and blade washer mounting blade
on shaft. Remove blade.
B. Blades should be discarded when worn
excessively.
C. Sharpen blades with a hand file, electric
grinder or blade sharpener. Wear gloves and
eye protection when sharpening. Grind blade
at original 25 degree bevel.
D. Check balance of blade by positioning the
blade on a nail or blade balance pedestal.
Grind the blade on the end that is heavier until
both sides balance.
E. Install blade, blade washer, and bolt. Make
sure to tighten bolt to 100 ft-lbs.
5. V-BELTS:
All belts should be checked every 50 hours.
Replace any belts found to be in poor condition.
All belts are equipped with spring loaded belt
tighteners and do not require tightening
adjustments.
6. LUBRICATION:
A. Engine: Follow engine manufacturer’s
recommendation.
B. Hydrostatic Transmission & Filter: Follow
instructions listed below.
DIRT OR WATER IN OIL CAN RUIN
THE HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSIONS
Check the oil level in hydrostatic transmission oil
reservoirs after every 25 hours of usage. Check that
the level of both reservoirs is visible through the sight
window in the side panel. The level should be checked
cold. (Slide the seat as far forward as possible for
better visibility.) Replenish as needed with 20W-50
Motor Oil. DO NOT OVER FILL. When replenishing
the oil level, be very careful to keep the reservoir clean.

handle position may be adjusted for operator
comfort and alignment. Loosening the handle
mount bolts, move the levers into the desired
position and re-tighten the mounting bolts securely.
JOYSTICK ADJUSTMENT
1. SETTING TRACKING AND FORWARD SPEED:
A. The initial setting is done with the engine
TURNED OFF.
B. Remove both fender skirts.
C. Start by setting the RH transmission speed.
Disconnect the linkage that is connected to the
left side transmission at the upper end.
D. On the outside (long) linkage that links the
joystick to the right side transmission,
Loosen the jam nuts on both ends of the
coupling nut. (Upper is a left-hand
thread.) Rotate the coupling nut several
turns to lengthen it.
IMPORTANT:
Use two wrenches (one on the nut and one on
the coupling nut or rod end housing) when
loosening or tightening jam nuts to prevent
damaging the rod end ball joints!
E. Lift the joystick control handle out of the
neutral position and hold it firmly in the full
forward position. Now, by hand, rotate the
coupling nut shortening the linkage until
resistance is felt from the transmission control
bottoming out in the transmission. Rotate the
coupling nut back and forth a couple times to
confirm, and mark this position.
F. Now rotate the coupling nut exactly one full
turn longer and retighten the jam nuts. When
retightening make sure that the ball joints on
both top and bottom are well centered so that
they do not bind up when moving the joystick
handle to the extremes of its travel.
NOTE: This full turn longer is required to prevent
internal damage to the transmission.
G. Now set the LH transmission speed.
Reconnect the linkage to the left side
transmission. (see left side transmission
illustration on previous page).
H. Loosen the jam nuts on both ends of the left
side transmission linkage. One of these is a
left-hand thread. Now rotate the linkage rod a
couple turns to lengthen it.
I. Hold the joystick control handle firmly in the full

J. Now rotate the linkage rod exactly one full
turn longer and retighten the jam nuts. Make
sure that the ball joints on both top and bottom
are centered.
NOTE: This full turn longer is required to prevent
internal damage to the transmission.
K. Test drive the mower to check for tracking at
full speed. If needed, slow the fast side by
lengthening the control rod connected to the
faster transmission. Use small adjustments of
about ¼ turn. Replace the fender skirts when
done.
2. SETTING NEUTRAL:
If, with the joystick handle in the DOWN or start
position and the engine running the mower moves
or travels, it is necessary to adjust neutral. Raise
the drive wheels off the ground, secure the mower
on blocks or jack stands and proceed as follows:
A. Remove the fender skirt on the joystick side.
Loosen the two nuts on the bottom of the
joystick neutral plate just enough so that the
plate can move freely.
B. Start the engine. With the joystick still down,
position the handle so both wheels are
stationary.
C. Tighten the two nuts on the bottom of the
neutral plate, being careful not to shift it out of
position.
D. Recheck neutral before placing the mower
back on the ground. Then shut off the engine
and remove the mower from the blocks.
Replace the fender skirt.
3. JOYSTICK CONTROL LEVER SENSITIVITY
ADJUSTMENT:
To change the sideways turning response, adjust
as follows:
A. Remove the right hand fender skirt exposing
the Joystick Control Lever assembly.
B. Remove the cross bolt, nut, & spacers.
C. For quicker reacting steering place the long,
silver colored spacers toward the inside of the
rod end ball joints and the shorter, gold colored
spacers on the outside of the ball joints. For
slower reacting steering place the short, gold
colored spacers on the inside and the longer,
silver colored spacers on the outside. All 4
spacers must be used when reassembling.

RAISING AND LOWERING THE DECK FOR
SERVICING
1. RAISING THE DECK TO THE SERVICING
POSITION (60” Decks):
A. Remove cut height adjustment pin and
completely lower the cut height adjustment
lever. Re-insert the cut height adjustment pin
into the 3” cut height position (this will lock the
cut height adjustment lever into the lowest
position).
B. Release engine to deck belt tightener located
behind the left rear tire.(See page 20) Flip up
the foot deck to allow access to the engine to
deck belt. Roll the belt off the center spindle.
Hook the belt onto the bolt protruding from
lower lip of the foot deck support angle.
C. On the right side of the mower, lift and hold up
on the hook keeper.(see page 23)Lift up on
the release handle to disconnect the back of
the deck. The latch plate should catch and
hold the release handle rod in place. (To
adjust the latch plate, see Page 23.)
D. Position the front caster wheels so they are
away from the deck (such as the tractor would
be traveling in reverse).
E. Lift the nose of the deck until the deck is
standing vertical (lifting can be made easier if
someone stands on the rear bumper of the
tractor). IMPORTANT NOTE: MAKE SURE
THAT THE DECK IS LIFTED FAR ENOUGH
TO GO COMPLETELY “OVER-CENTER”.
This will prevent the deck from falling down
when servicing the underside of the mower
deck
F. Release the deck prop from its stowed position
and place the free end against the deck lift
casting as shown on page 18. Make sure the
point of the prop falls within the center
clearance area.
2. RETURNING THE DECK TO THE OPERATING
POSITION:
A. Place the prop back in the stow position. (See
page 18)
B. Push the bottom (back) of the deck towards
the rear of the tractor. Lower the deck until it
rests on the ground.
C. Lift up on the latch plate to release the release
handle rod. Push down on the release handle
until deck hooks lock into place.
D. Re-install the Engine to Deck Drive belt onto
ALL of the pulleys, including the clutch.
Ensure that the Engine to Deck Drive Belt is
properly routed onto all of the pulleys and
idlers in the drive train.
E. Carefully rotate the Deck Belt Tension Latch to
re-tension the Engine to Deck Drive Belt.

LEVELING THE DECK
1. Move the tractor to a hard, level surface (i.e. concrete or blacktop).
2. Set the tire pressure to 12-15 psi/83-103 kPa (front) & 18 psi/124 kPa (rear), make sure front tires are equal & rear
tires are equal.
3. Remove key from ignition switch.
4. Rotate the blade you are going to measure to run parallel with tractor frame, front to back.
5. Set the Deck Cut Height Lever to the 4’ cutting position.
6. Loosen the Deck Hanger Bolt Jam Nuts.
7. Adjust the Front Left Hand Deck Hanger Bolt until the front edge of the Left Hand Blade is
Approximately 4” from ground.
8. Adjust the Front Right Hand Deck Hanger Bolt until the front edge of the Right Hand Blade is
within 1/8” of the Front Left hand Blade measurement. NOTE: “On 72” Decks” If the Front Right Hand blade
measurement can not be obtained it will be necessary to shorten or lengthen the Adjustable Drag Bar Link on the
right hand side of the deck suspension. Lengthening the Adjustable Drag link lowers the front end of the Right
Hand blade and shortening the Adjustable Drag Bar Link raises the front of the Right Hand blade.
