SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS & PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST

SNAPPER ZERO TURNING Z-RIDER with MID MOUNT MOWER

INTRODUCTION: These instructions cover the set-up of the Snapper Mid Mount Z-Rider Mower. Complete each

of the following steps carefully. Review and complete each item as instructed on the Pre-Operation checklist.

The Snapper Product Registration card must be filled out and sent to Customer Service department at Snapper

when completed.

IMPORTANT: The battery for this unit is maintenance-free. It is filled with acid and is sealed. Do not attempt to

open the battery. Pay close attention to the precautionary statements on the battery and in these instructions.

If charging is needed (see below), you will need an automotive type battery charger to activate the battery for

use.

STEP 1: Remove machine from the container.

STEP 2: Install roll bar protective structure:

A. Install side bars into frame brackets behind fuel

tanks, making sure bars aim up and bend toward

front of machine. See Figure 1. Secure each bar to

its corresponding bracket with two 1/2-13 x 3-1/4”

hex bolts and lock nuts. Do not tighten yet.

FIGURE 1

B. Attach roll bar to side bars, securing with two

1/2-13 x 3-1/4” hex bolts and lock nuts through the

hinges. See Figure 2. NOTE: Make sure roll bar tilts

backward when folded.

C. Raise roll bar to fully upright position, aligning

locking holes in roll bar with corresponding holes in

side bars. Insert locking pin through each hole, and

secure with connected bridge pin. Install star knobs

into threaded holes in front of roll bar, and tighten

securely. See Figure 2.

D. Tighten hardware securing side bars to frame

brackets, torquing to 60-70 ft-lbs. Tighten roll bar

hardware as well; however, leave loose enough so

that roll bar folds and raises easily.

WARNING

Roll bar protective structure must be installed and all

mounting hardware securely tightened before starting

or operating machine. Do Not modify the structure in

any way before, during or after installation. Modifying

the structure can result in serious injury or death.

STEP 3: Check the date on the battery label. See

Figure 3. If battery is placed into service after date

shown on label, battery will have to be charged:

A. Remove battery from the battery compartment

before charging.

B. Place battery in a well ventilated area on a level

non-concrete surface.

C. Charge the battery at 6-10 amps for 1 hour to

bring the battery to full charge.

WARNING

Keep all sparks, flame and fire away from area when

charging battery.

STEP 4: Install battery into power unit.

STEP 5: Both bolts are already installed on both

terminals. Connect positive (+) cable (red) first, from

wiring harness to the positive terminal (+) on battery

and secure with nut provided in hardware bag. Connect

negative (-) cable (black) last, to negative terminal (-)

on battery and secure with nut also provided. See

Figure 3. Apply a small amount of grease over

terminals to prevent corrosion.

WARNING

Shield the positive terminal with terminal cover

located on battery harness. This prevents metal

from touching the positive terminal, which could

cause sparks.
