at the other side of the machine.
Installing the Brakes and Wheels
1. Clean the 2 flange-head bolts (3/8 x 3/4 inch)
and apply a coat of anti-seize compound to the
threads of the bolts.
2. Align the brake pads to either side of the rotor
(Figure 30) and the holes in the caliper bracket
with the holes in the brake mount of the spindle
frame (Figure 34).
3. Assemble the caliper bracket to the spindle
frame (Figure 30) with the 2 flange-head bolts
(3/8 x 3/4 inch), and torque the bolts to 47 to 54
N∙m (35 to 40 ft-lb).
4. Align the holes in the wheel to the studs of the
hub and assemble the wheel to the hub with the
valve stem outward
Note:
Ensure that the mounting surface of the
wheel is flush with the hub.
5. Secure the wheel to the hub with the lug nuts
(Figure 29), and torque the nuts to 108 to 122
N∙m (80 to 90 ft-lb).
6. Repeat steps 1 through
wheel at the other side of the machine.

Electrical System
Maintenance

Electrical System Safety

•
Disconnect the battery before repairing the
machine. Disconnect the negative terminal first
and the positive last. Connect the positive terminal
first and the negative last.
•
Charge the battery in an open, well-ventilated
area, away from sparks and flames. Unplug the
g192345
charger before connecting or disconnecting the
battery. Wear protective clothing and use insulated
tools.

Battery Safety

•
To reduce the potential for fire, keep the batteries
and motor area free of excessive grease, grass,
leaves, and accumulation of dirt.
•
Remove all jewelry and watches before servicing
the batteries.
•
Do not charge the batteries while servicing the
machine.
•
Always disconnect all the battery cables before
servicing any electrical components; refer to
Disconnecting the Batteries (page
Note:
Disconnecting all the battery cables
isolates power from the electrical system.
•
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid, which
produces hydrogen, a gas that is explosive in
certain conditions. Sulfuric acid can burn skin and
damage clothing; when emitted in gas form, it can
damage your lungs.
– Always service, store, and charge the machine
in a well-ventilated area.
– Keep sparks and open flames away from the
batteries.
– Do not smoke near the batteries.
– Do not use an open flame to check the level or
leakage of battery electrolyte.
– Wear proper eye, hand, and face protection.
– Do not lean over the batteries at any time.
– Avoid breathing in battery fumes.
– Fill the batteries where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
– If you get electrolyte on your skin or eyes,
flush the affected area for 20 minutes with
clean water. Remove affected clothing. Seek
medical attention immediately.
– Keep children and pets away from the batteries
and electrolyte.
