1999 3000 Series Engineering Updates

HEAT SHIELD

A heat shield has been installed on all 3000 series tractors for 1999. The heat shield prevents the exhaust gases from browning the grass. Use kit #7593927. See Service Advisory CC-371.

Heat Shield

1.Remove both of the hex bolts and lock nuts securing the front bumper to the frame using a 3/4" socket and a 3/4" wrench.

2.Remove the bumper.

3.Slide the muffler shield over the exhaust pipe and rotate it into position.

NOTE: Align all three holes in the top of the muffler shield with the existing shield. Also, the muffler shield will be slanting towards the bottom of the front grill assembly.

Heat Shield

4.Secure the muffler shield with three sheet metal screws.

NOTE: Use a long flat blade screwdriver through the air holes in the grill to tighten the sheet metal screws securely.

5. Install the bumper.

LIFT LINK

The lift link has been modified by strengthening the powder metal that connects the lift lever to the hydraulic valve for 1999.

CHECK VALVE

For 1999, a check valve will be installed to the hydraulic valve to prevent the decks and other attachments from leaking down during and after usage.

LIFT STOP BRACKET

A lift stop bracket will be installed on the left hand side of the deck to prevent the deck from hanging up during operations. Use kit #759-3927.

ROLLER HEIGHT ADJUSTER

The rear roller height adjustment mechanism will be changed for 1999. A newly designed detent pin will replace the old one, preventing the loss of cutting height during operations. Use kit #759-3928.

FRONT DECK HANGER ASSEMBLY

The front roller bracket has been redesigned to prevent the front lift rod from detaching during operation.

SEAT IMPROVEMENTS

A safer seat spring, part number 732-0869, can be installed to level the seat for petite operators. In addition, the seat part number 757-3010A, is now made out of a softer material for better operator comfort. See Service Advisory CC-358A Sections 5 and 6.

FRONT MOWER DECK HEIGHT ADJUSTER

The front mower deck height adjuster pins have been changed from ball detent pins to quick pull pins.
