Weight.................................................. 1
Screw, Button Head 3/8-16 x 1............. 2
Asm, Weight Support ........................... 1

Procedure:
The front weight installed without the
bagger may cause loss of traction and
steering control or an unstable
condition which could result in injury
or death.
Install the front weight only when the
bagger is installed.
Note: The removable weight is heavy. Use
care when lifting it. Make sure that you can
hold it securely before lifting it. Use caution
when positioning your hands so that you do
not set it down on your hands or fingers.
1. Attach the weight support assembly (item 8) to
the front panel foot rest with two 3/8-16 x 1
button head screws (item 7) and two nyloc nuts
(item 6) as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2
Note: If your mower does not have mounting
holes on the foot rest, position the back of the
weight support assembly on the cross bar under
the foot rest. Center the weight support
assembly and mark the two mounting holes on
the lip of the foot rest. Drill holes using a 13/32”
drill bit. Install weight support assembly as
stated in step 1.
2. Insert the weight (item 5) onto the weight
support assembly (item 8).
3. The lock rod (item 4) has a key on one end.
Slide the lock rod through the weight support
assembly, notch in the weight and the oval hole
in the frame bracket.
4. Rotate the lock rod to secure it into place.
Note: The weight support assembly can
stay mounted to the unit when the bagger
and weight are removed.

you remove or install it on the quick-
attach bracket.
