demanding special attention, since it deals with the possibility of damaging a part or parts of the machine.

Walker Manufacturing cannot predict every potentially dangerous situation. Therefore, items labeled as such in this manual do not cover all conceivable situations. Any person using procedures, tools, or control techniques not recommended by Walker Manufacturing must take full responsibility for safety.

The Walker Rider Lawnmower has been designed with many safety features to protect the operator from personal harm or injury. However, it is necessary for the operator to use safe operating procedures at all times. Failure to follow safety instruc-

tions contained in this manual may result in personal injury or damage to equipment or property.

If you have any questions concerning setup, operation, maintenance, or safety, please contact your authorized Walker Mower dealer or call Walker Manufacturing Company at (970) 221-5614.

BEFORE OPERATING

1. Read and understand the contents of this Operator’s Manual before starting and operating the machine. Become thoroughly famil-

iar with all machine controls and how to stop the machine and disengage the controls quickly. Replacement Operator’s Manuals are available by sending the Model and Serial Number to:

Walker Manufacturing Company

5925 East Harmony Road

Fort Collins, CO 80528

2. Never allow children to operate rider mower. Do not allow adults to operate without proper instruction.

3. Do not allow anyone other than the operator on the machine.

4. Keep everyone, especially children and pets, a safe distance away from the area of operation.

Do not mow with bystanders in the area.

5. Do not operate the machine barefoot or wearing sandals, sneakers, tennis shoes, or similar lightweight footwear. Wear substantial pro-

tective footwear.

NOTE: Identies information worthy of special

attention.

5

6. Do not wear loose tting clothing that could get caught in moving parts. Do not operate this machine while wearing shorts; always wear adequate protective clothing, including long pants. Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, and a helmet is advisable and required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations.

Safety Instructions

7. Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause im-

pairment or loss of hearing. Operator hearing protection is recommended. Wear a suitable hearing protective device, such as earmuffs or earplugs.

8. Keep all protective shields and safety devices in place. If a protective shield, safe- ty device, or decal is damaged, unusable, or missing, repair or replace it before operating the machine.

9. Be sure interlock switches are functioning correctly, so the engine cannot be started unless the Forward Speed Control lever is in the NEUTRAL-PARK position, and the PTO clutch is in the DISENGAGED position. Also, the engine should stop if the operator lifts off the seat with either the Forward Speed Control (FSC) out of the NEUTRAL-PARK position or the PTO clutch in the ENGAGED position.

10. Handle gasoline with care. Gasoline is highly

ammable and its vapors are explosive:

a. Use an approved fuel container.

b. Never add fuel to a running engine or hot

engine (allow hot engine to cool several minutes).

c. Keep matches, cigarettes, cigars, pipes,

open ames, or sparks away from the fuel

tank and fuel container.

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including Phenylethane which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, and N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www. P65Warnings.ca.gov.

OPERATING

NOTE: Refer to your tractor Operator’s Manual

for safety instructions for operating the tractor.

1. Operate the machine only in daylight or in

good articial light with good visibility of areas

being cleaned.

2. Sit on the seat when starting the engine and operating the machine. Keep feet on footrests at all times when the tractor is moving and/or the mower blades are operating.

3. For a beginning operator, learn to steer (ma-

neuver) the tractor with a slow engine speed before attempting any mowing operation.

Be aware that, with the front mounted mower

deck conguration, the back of the machine

swings to the outside during turns.

d. Always ll the fuel tank outdoors using care.

Fill to about one inch from the top of the tank. Use a funnel or spout to prevent spilling.

e. Replace the machine fuel cap and contain-

er cap securely and clean up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.

12. Never attempt to make any adjustments while the engine is running, except where

specically instructed to do so.

13. The electrical system battery contains sulfuric acid. Avoid any contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Keep the battery and acid out of reach of children.

DANGER

Do not operate around overhanging tree branches or bushes at the same height as the operator’s torso and head where inadvertent contact may cause injury.

4. Remember, for an emergency stop, the forward motion of the tractor can always be stopped by pulling the Forward Speed Control (FSC) into the NEUTRAL-PARK position.

6

Safety Instructions

5. In case either of the transmission drive belts break during operation, and if the machine is on a slope, the machine will freewheel down

the slope. To maintain control, immediately (1) Release the steering levers and simultaneously (2) Move the FSC to the NEUTRAL-PARK po- sition. When the machine is stopped or moving slowly, engage the parking brake.

NOTE: The emergency stop procedure is exactly the same procedure used to normally stop and park the machine.

6. Disengage the PTO clutch and put the FSC in the NEUTRAL-PARK position before starting the engine (an ignition interlock switch normally prevents starting of the tractor if these controls are in the OPERATING position).

7. Do not operate machine if the operator pres- ence safety switch system is not working. Verify proper operation by having the operator lift off the seat with the engine running and moving two controls, one at a time; (1) Move the FSC lever out of the NEUTRAL-PARK position, and (2) Engage the PTO Clutch. Moving either control should stop the engine immediately.

8. Do not run the engine in a conned area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and can be deadly.

9. Do not carry passengers - maximum seating capacity is one (1) person.

10. Avoid sudden starts or stops. Before back- ing the machine up, look to the rear to be sure no one is behind the machine. Watch carefully for trafc when crossing or working near roadways.

11. When moving forward, do not suddenly put the tractor in reverse by rapidly pulling on the steering levers, especially when going downhill, as this can lift the tractor tail wheel off the ground and set up a bucking motion due to operator overcontrol. If bucking does occur, immediately stop the bucking action by pulling the Forward Speed Control (FSC) lever into the NEU-

TRAL-PARK position.

13. The maximum recommended slope operating angle is 15 degrees or 26% grade. When

operating the machine on a slope, reduce speed and use caution to start, stop, and maneuver. To prevent tipping or loss of control of the machine, avoid sharp turns or sudden changes in direction. Do not operate the machine on a slope greater than 15 degrees.

14. Never adjust dethatcher gauge wheels with the engine running. Before adjusting height or servicing, disengage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, and remove the ignition key. Wait for all movement to stop before getting off the seat.

NOTE: The PTO brake should stop drive line

rotation within ve (5) seconds of disengaging the PTO clutch. If the brake is not functioning

properly, adjust or repair the brake before operating the mower. Contact your Walker dealer for additional help.

15. If the cutting blades strike a solid object or the machine begins to vibrate abnormally,

immediately disengage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, and wait for all moving parts to stop. Disconnect the fuel solenoid wire [die-

sel engines] or the spark plug wire(s) [gasoline engines] to prevent accidental starting. Thoroughly inspect the mower and repair any damage before restarting the engine and operating the machine. Make sure cutting blades are in good condition and blade nuts are torqued to 60 lb•ft (81 N•m).

16. Do not touch the engine or mufer while the engine is running or immediately after stopping the engine. These areas may be hot enough to cause serious burns.

17. When leaving the machine unattended, disen-

gage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, and remove the ignition key.

12. Disengage the PTO clutch when transporting the machine.

Safety Instructions

MAINTENANCE

NOTE: Refer to your tractor Operator’s Manual

for safety instructions for tractor maintenance.

1. To prevent accidental starting of the engine when servicing or adjusting the machine, remove the key from the ignition switch and disconnect the fuel solenoid wire [diesel engines] or the spark plug wire(s) [gasoline engines].

2. To reduce re hazards, keep the engine free of grass, leaves, excessive grease, and dirt.

3. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to ensure the machine is in a safe, working condition. Check the blade mounting nuts frequently, making sure they are tight.

4. Perform only maintenance instructions de- scribed in this manual. Unauthorized main-

tenance operations or machine modications

may result in unsafe operating conditions.

5. If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet

and clothing away from moving parts. Do not wear jewelry or loose clothing.

6. Always use proper engine service manuals when working on the engine. Unauthorized

maintenance operations or modications to the

engine may result in unsafe operating conditions.

7. Altering the machine or engine in any manner which adversely affects its operation, performance, durability or use will VOID the war- ranty and may cause hazardous conditions.

8. Never attempt to disconnect any safety devices or defeat the purpose of these safety devices.

9. Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine. The governor has been factory-set for maximum-safe engine operating speed.

10. Use genuine factory replacement parts. Substitute parts may result in product malfunction and possible injury to the operator and/or others.

The Walker Lawn Dethatcher will effectively dislodge excessive thatch from your lawn. Thatch is a layer of stems, clippings, runners, roots, and leaves that have not decayed. Excessive thatch prevents air, water, and fertilizer from reaching the roots. These instructions will help ensure proper assembly and operation.

1. Attach the caster wheel mounts to the tine tray as

shown in Install Caster Wheels illustration. In- stall the caster fork/wheel assembly into the caster wheel mount as shown. Be sure to install the shock washer and three (3) spacers before in-

stalling the caster fork. Install the remaining three

(3) spacers at the top of the caster fork and install the lynch pin. Use this as a starting point for the spacer location.

tion. It is important to be sure the loop between

the tine coils nests around the hardware on the tine tray. After all the tines are installed, tighten the tine mounting hardware.

3. Insert safety rods through the coils of the tines as

shown in the Install Dethatching Tines illustration. Secure by bending the end of the rod 1-1/2 in. to 2 in. from the end to prevent them from slipping back through the tines. The safety rod must be free to move slightly from side to side.

WARNING

Failure to install the safety rods can result in personal injury if a tine should disengage from the tine tray.

4. Install the foot trigger as shown in Foot Trigger

photo using the 5/16-18 x 1-3/4 Hex Bolt (F316),

5/16 x 1 x 7/64 Flat Washer (F170), Washer (F060) and 5/16-18 ESNA Nut (F020). Foot trigger should move freely after tightening nut.

Assembly Instructions

ADJUST TINES

Check and adjust the dethatcher tine working height

on a at surface. With the dethatcher mounted on the

mower deck and the tines lowered into the working position, the tine ends should be approximately 1/2 in. (13mm) above the surface as shown in the Adjust Tine Working Height photo. The tines should touch the surface when pushed back. If the tine vertical position needs to be adjusted, use the spacer washers on the caster wheel forks as follows (each spacer washer gives 1/8 in. [3mm] of adjustment):

1. To raise the tines, remove the linch pin and move spacers from the top of the caster fork and place them on the bottom.

2. To lower the tines, remove spacers from the bottom of the caster fork and place them on the top of the caster fork.

2. To disengage the dethatcher, pull back on the lift lever until the trigger assembly engages the mounting bracket.

NOTE: When raising/disengaging the dethatcher, there is resistance due to the tines being en-

gaged. It is easier to disengage the tines by

stopping the tractor forward motion and reversing the tractor while lifting.

TINE ACTION

Grass should be less than 3 in. (8cm) tall for pro- per tine action. When in use, all of the tines should deect back independently and “ip” the thatch forward as shown in the Tine Action illustration. If

the tines drag without ipping forward, the tines are too low and need to be raised. If the tines remain

in the free position, the tines are too high and needs to be lowered. Refer to Adjust Tines in the Assembly Instructions and adjust as needed for proper dethatching action.

END OF SEASON

1. Clean and inspect the dethatcher thoroughly, noting any replacement parts that will be needed before the next season.

The Walker Lawn Dethatcher is nearly mainten-

ance free. However, periodically grease will need to be added to the grease ttings on the caster

wheel mounts and the pivot points shown in A10 Lubrication Points Diagram will need to be oiled.

Also inspect for broken/worn tines and replace as needed.

2. Repaint all parts from which paint has worn.

NOTE: Rustproong or painting every year will

prolong the life of the dethatcher.

3. When the dethatcher is dry, apply oil to tines to prevent rust. Apply lubricant liberally to all exposed surfaces to protect against rust.

4. Store dethatcher in a dry place.
