STEP 12
Raising the Mower
• Raise the mower by rotating the Crank Handle clockwise.
• See Step 22 for raising the mower with drill attachment.
If the lift Tower is leaning while lifting or lowering the mower, this
indicates an overload condition. REMOVE THE MOWER IMMEDIATELY.
The jack must be used on a solid level surface.
The engine must be turned off and key removed.
The mower must be in neutral when raising or lowering to allow the
wheels roll as the mower is raised or lowered.
The parking brake must be off during this step.
Always use included safety straps. The Safety Straps must be firmly tightened.
STEP 13
Raising the Mower to Locking Position
• Raise the Lift Arm until the Carrier Locking Handle drops into one of
the two Tower Holes. The Tower Locking Holes are the automatic
safety engagement system.
• The Carrier Locking Handle automatically drops into the
Tower Holes as the Carrier passes the Tower Holes when raising.
Locking engagement occurs at 20” and 25”.
NOTE: When lowering the Lift Arm, the Carrier Locking Handle must be
held out by the operator until it clears the bottom Tower Hole.
NOTE: The XD Lift is equipped with a clutch to protect itself from
accidental damage. If the Carrier Locking Handle is not disengaged
when lowering, the clutch will release the Crank Handle from the
screw and rotate freely. To re-engage the Crank Handle,
turn clockwise for a few turns.
