Installing the Boot
1. Install the boot rod mount (747-06043) to the boot using two shoulder screws
(738-1225) and two flangelock nuts (712-04064) from hardware pack 689-00636.
Ensure that the shoulder screws (738-1225) are installed on the interior of the boot.
See Figure 19.
2. With the tractor's discharge chute raised up and held open (1), install the boot by
placing the boot mounting rod into the hole provided in either your deck wheel
bracket or boot mounting tab (2), as shown in Figure 20.
3. Secure the boot to the deck using a wing knob (720-04122) from hardware pack
689-02364. See Figure 21.
NOTE: If present, remove the protective cap off of the mounting stud on the mowing deck
as shown in the upper inset of Figure 21.
IMPORTANT: Be certain that the bottom of the discharge chute is located inside of the lip of
the deck opening, as shown in Figure 22.
Installing the Hose
1. Thread the upper end of the hose securely into the upper chute support. There are
two tabs on the lower inside part of the upper chute support to allow for secure
threading. See Figure 23.
NOTE: The hose and upper chute support are left-hand threaded. Thread
counterclockwise until secure.
2. Slide the hose over the boot mounted on the cutting deck, as shown in Figure 24.
3. Make sure the connection is secure and there are no gaps between the hose and the boot.
4. If open, close the grass catcher cover prior to mowing.
