Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new

product owners.

This mower has been designed with care and built by

skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly,

maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you

get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The Accu-Z Razor®mowers from Land Pride are

compact in size and ideal for homeowner and

commercial grass maintenance . The Accu-Z is a true

zero-turn mower: When mowing alongside a building or

landscaping, the Accu-Z turns within its own width,

allowing you to turn away and not hit anything with the

rear end. This makes it the perfect choice for cemeteries,

parks, recreational areas, sports fields and schools

where obstacles are prevalent. An optional Vacuum

Bagger, Mulching Kit and Control Lever Extensions are

also available. See “Features and Benefits”,“Section

6” for additional information.

and correct the problem.

Safety Start Interlock System

The mower is equipped with a safety start interlock

system consisting of the brake switches, seat switch, and

deck clutch switch. Check mower safety start interlock

system daily, prior to operation. This system is an

important mower safety feature. It should be repaired

immediately if it malfunctions. The machine incorporates

a separate seat switch which will stop the mower engine

when the operator is unseated for any reason while the

mower is moving or the deck clutch is engaged. This is a

safety feature designed to prevent runaway or accidental

entanglement. To inspect the system:

1. The operator must be on the seat when testing the

seat switch.

2. Set both control levers in the park brake position.

3. Start the engine and allow it to warm up to operating

temperature.

4. With the deck clutch switch down and the control

levers in the park brake position, slowly raise off of

the seat. The engine should continue to run.

5. With the deck clutch switch up and/or the control

levers in the neutral position, slowly raise off of the

seat. The engine should stop within two seconds.

6. If the engine fails to stop when the deck clutch switch

is up or one or both of the control levers is in and the

operator is off the seat, check the function of the seat

switch. If the seat switch is not operating properly

and if the cause can not be determined, replace the

seat switch.

If the problem can not be located, contact your Land

Pride Dealer.

!WARNING!

The safety interlock system should always function per steps 4

and 5. If it does not function properly, it should be corrected

immediately. Do not operate the mower without a properly

functioning seat safety switch.

!WARNING!

The safety interlock system must not be disconnected or

bypassed

Engine Starting

The Accu Z safety start interlock system is also designed

to protect the operator and others from accidental injury

due to unintentional engine starting. The engine starting

motor will not engage until:

A. Control levers are in the brake position.

B. Deck clutch switch is in the down (OFF) position.

The following steps are the correct procedures for

starting the engine. If difficulty is encountered, contact

the Land Pride Dealer in your area.

1. Before starting mower each day, perform daily pre-

operation checking.

2. Make sure the control levers are in the brake position

and deck clutch switch is disengaged.

3. Set throttle at approximately 1/2 open position.

4. Insert key in ignition switch and rotate full clockwise

to engage starting motor. Release key when engine

starts.

interlock system section.

6. As soon as engine begins to run, check to make

certain the oil warning light is off. If not, stop engine

immediately and check for the cause.

7. Allow the engine to idle a few minutes before

advancing the throttle and/or engaging the deck

clutch.

8. Before stopping the engine, place the control levers

in the brake position, disengage the deck clutch, and

throttle back to low idle for a couple of minutes; then

rotate ignition key counter-clockwise to the OFF

position. Remove the key from switch before leaving

the seat.

!WARNING!

Never leave the machine unattended with key in ignition switch.

Moving Mower with Stalled Engine

If it becomes necessary to move the mower when the

engine is inoperative, the hydraulic pumps are equipped

with bypass valves. Before moving the unit, turn bypass

valves counter clockwise one-half to one revolution. The

valve stems on each hydraulic pump are located near the

top and are identified as a hex stud. Refer to Figure 2-8.

Do not tow the machine. Move it by hand or use a winch

to load on a trailer for transporting.

IMPORTANT: The engine starter should not be

operated for periods longer then 30 seconds at a

time. An interval of at least two minutes should be

allowed between such cranking periods to protect the

starter from overheating and burn-out.

Driving the Mower

!DANGER!

Never make sudden stops or reverse direction, especially when

going down a slope. The steering is designed for sensitive

response. Rapid movement of the control levers in either

direction could result in a reaction of the mower that can cause

serious injury.

Steering

Refer to Figure 2-9:

After starting engine, engage the control levers and steer

as follows:

To Go Forward:

Push control levers forward an equal distance.

To Go in Reverse:

Pull control levers rearward an equal distance.

To Turn Left:

Move the right control lever farther forward from neutral

than the left control lever.

To Turn Right:

Move the left control lever farther forward from neutral

than the right control lever.

To Pivot Turn:

Move one control lever forward and the other control

lever back of neutral, this will allow the drive wheels to

counter-rotate.

To Stop or Decrease Speed

!WARNING!

In the event of a system failure while mowing, engage both

parking brakes to stop or slow mower. Refer to Figure 2-4.

Move control levers to neutral. When going forward pull

back gently on control levers. When going in reverse

push forward gently on control levers.

!DANGER!

When going in reverse push forward gently on control levers

and avoid sudden movement. Any sudden movement could

cause the front of the mower to come off of the ground resulting

in possible loss of control.

To Increase Speed

Increase control levers equal distance from neutral. The

farther forward control levers are from neutral, the faster

mower will travel forward. The farther back control levers

are from neutral, the faster mower will go in reverse.

Operating Suggestions

!DANGER!

Prior to operating the mower the operator should be thoroughly

familiar with the proper use and operation of the equipment,

should read the manual completely and thoroughly, and should

have attempted slow moving maneuvers to become familiar with

the operation of the equipment before attempting normal speed

operation. An inexperienced operator should not mow on slopes

or on uneven terrain.

!WARNING!

The mower’s control levers are very responsive: Easy does it!

For smooth operation, move lever slowly, avoid sudden

movement. Skill and ease of operation come with practice and

experience.

Inexperienced operators may have a tendency to

over-steer and lose control. Slow-moving practice

maneuvers are recommended to become familiar with

these characteristics before attempting normal speed

operation.

!WARNING!

Sharp depressions or raised obstacles (such as gutters or curbs)

should not be directly approached at high speed in an attempt

to jump them as the operator could be thrown from the

equipment. Approach at a slow speed and angle one drive wheel

at the obstruction. Continue at an angle until the wheel clears

and then pivot the opposite wheel around.

When turning on soft wet turf, keep both wheels rolling

either forward or backward. Pivoting on one stopped

wheel can damage turf. This is especially important

when mowing.

Peak mowing performance is maintained when the

throttle is set at full rpm. This gives maximum power to

the drive wheels and deck when needed. Use the control

levers to control ground speed rather than engine rpm.

!WARNING!

Do not operate the equipment while wearing sandals, tennis

shoes, sneakers, shorts or any type of loose ﬁtting clothing.

Always wear long pants, safety glasses and safety shoes when

operating this machine.

Keep blades sharp. Many professional mowing

companies have additional sets of blades and change

blades twice a day: once in the morning and again at

noon. Many problems with incorrect cutting patterns are

due to dull blades or blades which have been sharpened

incorrectly. Information on sharpening blades is listed in

this manual’s maintenance section. In addition, most

communities have individuals or companies which

specialize in sharpening mower blades. Blade

sharpness should be checked daily.

Section 2 Operation

Z52, Z60 & Z72 Accu-Z® Zero Turn Mowers 356-005M 4/19/10

Table of Contents

Use high blade speed. Your Accu Z is designed to

operate at full throttle. The throttle setting directly

controls blade speed. The highest blade speed generally

gives the best cut.

Direct grass discharge to right, away from unmown

area. Select a mowing pattern that directs grass

discharge towards the outside, not towards center, of

mowing area. Generally, this means using a pattern

utilizing left turns because side discharge is to right.

Refer to Figure 2-10. In any case, avoid throwing grass

discharge onto unmowed area because grass is then

mowed twice. Mowing twice puts an unnecessary load

on the unit and reduces mowing efficiency.

!WARNING!

Never direct discharge of material from mower deck towards

bystanders.

!WARNING!

Never operate the mower deck with discharge chute removed or

in raised position.

!WARNING!

Always check area to be mowed for rocks and other debris

before mowing.

Mower Deck Operation

!DANGER!

Never attempt to make any adjustments to the mower deck while

the engine is running or with the blade engagement switch

engaged. Mower blades cannot be seen and are located very

close to deck housing. Fingers and toes can be cut off instantly.

With the engine running, engage the blade engagement

switch (Refer to Figure 2-11) and advance engine throttle

to full rpm.

Operating Instructions

After thoroughly familiarizing yourself with the Operator’s

Manual and completing the Operator’s Checklist, you are

almost ready to begin mowing.

Approach the mower from the front and make sure the

steering levers are spread fully apart in parking brake

position. Stand just to the outside rear of the left front

anti-scalp wheel and grab the left side steering lever for

support. Taking care not to step on the mower deck, step

up onto the operator’s platform and comfortably seat

yourself. With both steering levers still wide apart, reach

for the throttle and choke control to your right side.

Position the throttle control at half throttle and pull the

choke to the “up/on” position. Insert your ignition key and

rotate the ignition key clockwise until you hear the engine

begin to start. Release the ignition key and push the

choke to “down/off” position. Allow the engine to warm up

momentarily. If your mower has just been running and

the engine is already warm, using the choke is usually

not necessary.

With the engine at half throttle, reach forward and bring

both steering levers equally together in the neutral

position just in front of you. It’s now time to test your

steering skills. Gently push both steering levers equally

forward. The farther forward you push the levers, the

faster you will go. Pull back equally and you will slow

down, coming to a stop when you reach the neutral

position. Now slowly pull the levers back toward your

body past neutral position. The mower will reverse

direction and increase in speed as you pull further back.

If you push one lever forward and pull one lever back the

mower will do a zero turn in the direction of the steering

lever closest to your body. Now take a few moments in a

safe area to practice maneuvering and steering your

mower with the engine still at half throttle. Gradually

increase your throttle speed until you feel totally

confident of your mower steering and handling ability

around obstacles and in tight areas.

It’s now time to cut the grass. You should have already

removed any obstacles from the lawn that you do not

want run over. With your mower at half throttle, place

your right foot on the deck lift pedal and release and

lower the deck to your preset cutting height. With your

right hand, pull up on the cutting blade engagement knob

and increase the engine speed to full throttle. You may

now begin mowing.

When you are done mowing or just want to take a break,

make sure you do all of the following. Park on level

ground, disengage the cutting blade, throttle back, leave

the steering levers in wide-open parking brake position,

turn the engine off, remove the key, and step carefully off

the left front corner of the operator’s platform.

If your mower is equipped with the Accu-Vac Collection

System and you need to empty the clipping containers, it

is not necessary to shut the engine off. You must,

however, disengage the cutting blade and spread the

steering levers into parking brake position before you

dismount or the unit will shut off automatically when you

lift off of the seat. Simply reverse this process when you

are ready to continue mowing.

Section 3 Adjustments

!WARNING!

Unless speciﬁcally required, DO NOT have engine running

when servicing or making adjustments to the mower. Place

control levers in the park brake position and remove ignition

switch key. Repairs or maintenance requiring engine power

should be performed by trained personnel only. To prevent

carbon monoxide poisoning, be sure proper ventilation is

available when engine must be operated in an enclosed area.

Read and observe safety warnings in front of manual.

Your Accu Z was adjusted before it left the factory and

was checked during pre-delivery setup. However, after

start-up and continued use, a certain amount of break-in

wear will cause some adjustments to change.

Remain alert for unusual noises, they could be signaling

a problem. Visually inspect the machine for any

abnormal wear or damage. A good time to detect

potential problems is while performing scheduled

maintenance service. Correcting the problem as quickly

as possible is the best insurance.

!WARNING!

Keep your machine clean and remove heavy deposits of trash

and clippings, they can cause engine ﬁres and hydraulic

overheating as well as excessive belt wear.

Clear away heavy build-up of grease, oil and dirt,

especially in the area of reservoir and oil and engine

combustion air; minute dust particles are abrasive to

close-tolerance engine and hydraulic assemblies.

Some repairs require the assistance of a trained service

mechanic and should not be attempted by unskilled

personnel. Consult your Land Pride service center when

assistance is needed.

Torque Values

!WARNING!

Particular attention must be given to tightening the drive wheel

lug nuts and wheel motor nuts. Failure to correctly torque these

items may result in the loss of a wheel, which can cause serious

damage or personal injury.

Refer to “Torque Values” on page 32.

It is recommended that the following be checked after the

first 2 hours of initial operation, initially and every 50

hours following removal for repair or replacement.

Wheel lug nuts

Wheel motor nut

Blade spindle bolts (top and bottom)

For engine torque values, see engine owner’s manual.

Steering Linkage

The neutral adjustment for the control levers in the

neutral position is discussed in this section.

The steering has been factory adjusted to eliminate

creeping when the control levers are in the neutral

position (Refer to Figure 3-1).

However, should the mower begin to creep, adjustments

can be made as outlined on the following page.

Control Lever Neutral Adjustment

Before considering any adjustment, check the tire air

pressure and make certain hydraulic system oil is at

operating temperature. Unequal tire pressure will cause

the mower to drift to one side. Refer to “Tire Inflation

Chart” on page 44.

Fine adjustment to the steering is made with the

adjustable pump linkage rods located between the

control lever and pump arms. Refer to Figure 3-2.

Neutral is properly adjusted when the control levers are

in the neutral position and the drive wheels are not

turning.

If the mower creeps in the neutral position the control

linkage may be adjusted as follows:

1. Raise and block the mower up so the drive wheels

are off of the floor.

!WARNING!

Make certain mower is secure when it is raised and placed on

the jack stands. The jack stands should not allow the mower to

move when the engine is running and the drive wheels are

rotating. Use only certiﬁed jack stands.

2. Position the control levers in the neutral position.

Disengage the deck clutch.

3. Start the engine and observe which way the wheels

are rotating.

4. If wheel(s) are rotating forward, loosen the jam nuts

on the pump linkage rods and rotate the rod to

lengthen the steering control linkage until the

wheel(s) come to a stop. Refer to Figure 3-2. Repeat

for the opposite side if necessary.

5. If wheel(s) are rotating in reverse then loosen the jam

nuts on the pump linkage rods and rotate the rod to

shorten the steering control linkage until the

wheel(s) come to a stop. Refer to Figure 3-2. Repeat

for the opposite side if necessary.

6. When both wheels remain in neutral, tighten the jam

nuts to lock the turnbuckle in place.

7. Test again by moving the control levers forward and

backward before returning them to the neutral

position. If the tires are in neutral, the unit is now

ready for operation.

8. After adjusting for neutral it may be necessary to

re-adjust the reverse spring and/or the control lever

stop Refer to Figure 3-3 and Figure 3-4.

Control Lever Stops

The control lever stops (Figure 3-3) are designed to do

two things: First, and most important, they must keep the

pumps from bottoming out internally. Second, the stops

may be adjusted to help drive straight when the control

levers are pushed forward against the stops.

To keep the pumps from bottoming out internally use the

following procedure:

1. To make the first adjustment the mower engine must

NOT be running.

2. Check to make sure the control levers are against the

stops before the pumps are bottomed out internally.

To do this, gently and slowly move the control levers

forward and feel if there is some resistance on the

pump lever before the control levers hit the stops.

Check one side at a time. If you sense that the pump

arms are stopping the forward motion of the control

arms, loosen the jam nut on the adjustable stop of

the corresponding side and turn the stop (set screw)

inward to stop the control levers slightly before the

pump bottoms out. Lock in place when the

adjustment is correct by re-tightening the jam nut.

3. Do this for each side.

To adjust the stops for driving straight when control

levers are against the stops during operation:

Determine which drive tire is rotating too fast when both

control levers are against the stops. Then stop the

mower and loosen the lock nut on the side which is

rotating too fast and turn the stop (set screw) inward to

stop the control lever sooner. Tighten the lock nut on the

stop and test again. Repeat this procedure until unit

drives straight.

Reverse Spring Adjustment

Refer to Figure 3-4:

The reverse spring is designed to bring the control levers

to the neutral position after they are released from the

reverse position.

To adjust:

1. Make certain the control lever neutral adjustment is

correct. If not, refer to Steering Linkage section.

2. When control lever is in the reverse position the

spring should force the control lever to return to

neutral after the lever is released.

3. Adjust the top nylock nut on the spring linkage until

the control lever returns to the neutral position from

the reverse position properly. Tightening the nylock

nut will cause the control lever to travel forward less

before stopping. Loosening the nylock nut will allow

the control lever to travel farther forward.

4. Check the length of the reverse spring when the

control lever is in the neutral position. This dimension

should be 1 7/8”. If it is not, adjust the lower nylock

nut until the dimension is achieved.

5. Repeat for other side.

NOTE: Since this is a hydrostatic drive, variables

such as temperature of oil, efficiency of pumps and

consistency of the ability to rely on the stops to drive

straight without the operator making minor steering

adjustments with the control arms.

Steering Dampener

Refer to Figure 3-5:

The steering dampeners are incorporated into the unit to

provide some resistance when the control levers are

moving forward or rearward. To set the steering

dampeners in the correct operating position follow these

steps:

1. Place the control lever in the neutral position.

2. Check the center distance from the dampeners front

mounting hole to the rear mounting hole. This

dimension should be 8 9/16”. If it is not, loosen the

front attaching bolt and slide the dampener in the

mounting slot until this dimension is attained.

Re-tighten front attaching bolt.

Control Lever Adjustment

The control levers can be adjusted for operator comfort.

By loosening the cap screws that attach the upper

control lever to the lower lever (Fig. 5-6), the upper

control lever can be pivoted to fit the operator s personal

preference. The control levers should be adjusted so that

they align with each other when in the neutral position.

Park Brake Adjustment

Occasionally check the park brakes and adjustment

using the following method:

1. Position the control levers in the neutral position.

Disengage the deck clutch.

!WARNING!

Make certain mower is secure when it is raised and placed on

the jack stands. The jack stands should not allow the mower to

move when the engine is running and the drive wheels are

rotating. Use only certiﬁed jack stands.

NOTE: The dampener must not bottom out when

the pump lever is fully stroked in either direction.

4. Rotate the tire. The tire should rotate. Remember

hydraulic oil resistance will prevent the tire from

rotating freely even with the bypass valves open.

There should be no resistance from the brakes at this

point.

5. Move the control lever to where it is touching the

outside edge of the lever’s travel slot.

Refer to Figure 3-9.

6. Rotate the tire. If the brake is adjusted properly the

tire will still rotate but friction will start to become

noticeable here. However, if no brake resistance is

noticed, the brake needs adjusted as follows:

Figure 3-9. The tire should not rotate when the

control lever is in the park brake position.

10. Place the control lever in the neutral position. The tire

should rotate freely.

11. Close the hydraulic pump’s bypass valve.

12. Repeat steps 3 thru 11 for the other side.

13. Remove from the jack stands and lower the unit. It is

now ready to operate.

Hydraulic Pump Belt Adjustment

Refer to Figure 3-11.

The pump drive belt tension remains constant by means

of a tension idler and spring. There is no tension

adjustment of this belt.

Deck Drive Belt Adjustment

Refer to Figure 3-12:

The spindle belt tension remains constant by means of a

tension idler and spring.

The spring tension should be such that the belt does not

slip under normal operating load conditions, assuming

the belt is not excessively worn or damaged. As belt

stretches and wears in, adjustment may become

necessary. To increase belt tension, move the spring

chain one (or more) link(s) at the anchor bracket (Figure

3-12). Installed spring length should be 9" + or - 3/8"

originally with adjustments of 5/8" per chain link.

Engine RPM Setting

The Accu Z is designed so that the engine will run at

3600 rpm static pump load only. At this speed the

hydraulic pumps are running at their maximum rated

speed.

Deck Leveling and Height Adjust-

ment

The mower deck has three areas that may need to be

checked and adjusted periodically. Before considering

any mower deck leveling adjustments, check that the tire

air pressure is within the specified range.

Deck Level Adjustments

Leveling the deck must be done in the following manner

and order:

1. Check tire pressures to make certain they are

properly inflated before starting to level deck. See

“Tire Inflation Chart” page 44.

!WARNING!

Stop engine. Make sure deck clutch switch is in the down (OFF)

position. Place control levers in the brake position before

leaving machine.

2. Park the unit on a flat surface.

3. Raise deck and place 3" of blocking under all 4

corners of the deck. This will set the cutting height at

3“. Refer to Figure 3-14.

4. Set cutting height at 3" on the height indicator by

placing the height adjusting stop in the 3" hole, and

turning the height stop so that the flat side is against

the stop handle. Refer to Figure Figure 3-15.

5. Clamp the height adjusting stop against the stop

handle (Figure 3-15). This will assure that the height

will not move during the setting process. Otherwise,

spring pressure from the deck lift springs will tend to

pull the stop away from the handle.

6. Refer to Figure 3-16, Figure 3-17 & Figure 3-18.

Loosen all nuts on the deck lift threaded rods, and

the hardware on the adjuster (on the right front), until

all the deck lift chains are loose, and the deck is

sitting tightly on all four blocks.

NOTE: Back of deck will automatically be set 1/4"

higher.

cutting height will be set to the deck height indicator.

Deck Cutting Height Adjustment

Deck height is adjustable from 1” to 5” in 1/4” increments.

The holes in the height adjusting bar are spaced at 1/2”

intervals. By turning the height adjusting stop around, 1/

4” increments can be attained due to the 1/4” plate that is

part of the stop. Refer to Figure 3-21.

EXAMPLE: When the height adjusting stop is placed in

the 1” hole, with the 1/4” plate facing to the front of the

unit, the cutting height is at 1”. When the height adjusting

stop is placed in the 1” hole, with the 1/4” plate on the

operator’s side of the hole, the cutting height is at 1 1/4”.

When the height adjusting stop is placed in one of the

holes, with the 1/4” plate on the operator’s side of the

hole, the deck height will be set at one of the following: 1

1/4”,

1 3/4”, 2 1/4”, 2 3/4”, 3 1/4”, 3 3/4”, 4 1/4” or 4 3/4”.

When the height adjusting stop is placed in one of the

holes, with the 1/4” plate facing to the front of the unit, the

deck height will be set at one of the following: 1”, 1 1/2”,

2”, 2 1/2”, 3”, 3 1/2”, 4”, 4 1/2” or 5”.

Anti-Scalp Rollers

Anti-scalp rollers are standard on the Accu Z. These anti-

scalp rollers are designed to minimize scalping when

mowing on rough uneven terrain.

After setting the cutting height, adjust the front anti-scalp

rollers so they extend below the deck but do not contact

the ground. They should always be at least 1/4” to 3/4”

below the deck. With the unit sitting on a flat level

surface, the front wheel position can be adjusted up or

down as needed from 3/4” to 1 3/4” below the blade

surface. Move the front wheels up or down, in 1/2”

increments, using the different axle mount holes in the

roller mount bracket.

See Figure Figure 3-22.

When adjusting the rear anti-scalp rollers, the roller

should be in the lower axle mount hole when the front

anti-scalp rollers are in the lower or middle axle mount

holes. When the front rollers are in the upper axle mount

hole, the rear rollers should be in the upper axle mount

hole as well.

Maintenance

!WARNING!

Unless speciﬁcally required, DO NOT have engine running

when servicing or making adjustments to mower. Place control

levers in the neutral position, disengage deck clutch, and

remove ignition switch key. Repairs or maintenance requiring

engine power should be performed by trained personnel only.

To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, be sure proper

ventilation is available when engine must be operated in an

enclosed area. Read and observe safety warnings in front of

manual.

!DANGER!

Before working on or under the deck, make certain engine

cannot be accidentally started. Shut engine off and remove

ignition switch key for maximum safety. Repairs or maintenance

requiring engine power should be performed by trained

personnel only.

!DANGER!

Exercise caution when working under the deck as the mower

blades are extremely sharp. Wearing gloves is advisable when

working around or with the blades.

!WARNING!

Except when changing or checking belt, always keep belt covers

on mower for safety as well as cleanliness.

!WARNING!

When possible, clean under mower using a stick or similar

instrument making sure that no part of the body, especially arms

and hands are under mower.

Regular maintenance is the best prevention for costly

downtime or expensive, premature repair. The following

pages contain suggested maintenance information and

schedules which the operator should follow on a routine

basis.

Remain alert for unusual noises, they could be signaling

a problem. Visually inspect the machine for any

abnormal wear or damage. A good time to detect

potential problems is while performing scheduled

maintenance service. Correcting the problem as quickly

as possible is the best insurance.

!WARNING!

Keep your machine clean and remove any deposits of trash and

clippings, which can cause engine ﬁres and hydraulic

overheating as well as excessive belt wear.

Clear away heavy build-up of grease, oil and dirt,

especially in the engine and hydraulic reservoir area;

minute dust particles are abrasive to close-tolerance

engine and hydraulic assemblies.

Daily inspect mower for grass clippings and wire and

string tangles. The underside of the mower deck will

collect a build-up of grass clippings and dirt, especially

when grass is wet or has high moisture content. This

build-up will harden, restricting blade and air movement

and will probably show a poorer quality of cutting.

Therefore it should be removed routinely.

To do this it will be necessary to raise and block the deck

in the full up position and scrape the build-up from

underneath.

Some repairs require the assistance of a trained service

mechanic and should not be attempted by unskilled

personnel. Consult your Land Pride dealer when

assistance is needed.

Torque Values

!WARNING!

Particular attention must be given to tightening the drive wheel

lug nuts, wheel motor nuts, and blade spindle nuts. Failure to

correctly torque these items may result in the loss of a wheel or

blade, which can cause serious damage or personal injury.

It is recommended that these be checked after the first 2

hours of initial operation and every 50 hours following

removal for repair or replacement.

For all other torques refer to “Torque Values Chart”

page 44.

For engine torque values, see engine owner’s manual.

Tires

It is important for level mowing that the tires have the

same amount of air pressure.

Refer to “Tire Inflation Chart” page 44.

Solid fill tires are not recommended for the Accu Z

mower. On any machine, with solid filled tires, the

warranty claim will be denied.

NOTE: After completing maintenance cycle

(500 hours), repeat cycle.

Hour Meter

To recognize when your machine needs servicing, check

the hour meter and the maintenance schedule. The hour

meter shows the number of hours the engine has run and

the maintenance schedule lists the service intervals. See

Figure 4-2.

Lubrication

1. Grease the front gauge wheel bearings per the

Maintenance Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose

grease.

2. Grease the four deck lift pivots, located to the side of

the operator’s footrest per the Maintenance

Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.

3. Grease the deck idler per the Maintenance

Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.

4. Grease the pump idler per the Maintenance

Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.

5. Grease the two deck pusher arm pivots per the

Maintenance Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose

grease.

6. Grease the blade spindle assemblies per the

Maintenance Schedule. Each spindle shaft is

equipped with a grease zerk located under the deck.

Use no more than one or two ounces of SAE

multi-purpose grease, (1 to 2 pumps on an average

grease gun). Do not force lubricant into grease zerks.

Bearings are sealed and do not require much

lubricant.

Electrical System

The electrical system is a 12 volt, negative ground.

Recommended battery size is a garden mower BCI

group U1R with 225 or better cranking AMP rating. A

maintenance-free battery is recommended. Otherwise,

follow battery manufacturer’s maintenance, safety,

storing and charging specifications.

The battery is located under the seat. See Figure 4-3.

!WARNING!

Avoid skin contact with battery acid. Always wear eye

protection when checking the battery, acid can cause serious

injury to skin and eyes. If contact occurs, ﬂush area with clean

water and call physician immediately. Acid will also damage

clothing. Do not allow open ﬂame near the battery when

charging. Hydrogen gas forms inside the battery. This gas is

both toxic and ﬂammable and may cause an explosion if

exposed to ﬂame. Always remove the negative ground ﬁrst and

replace it last. Do not overﬁll battery. Electrolyte may overﬂow

and damage paint, wiring or structure. When cleaning the

battery, use soap and water. Be careful not to get soap and

water into the battery. Use soda mixed in water to clean

corrosion off the terminals.

Common circuit failures are usually caused by shorting,

corroded or dirty terminals, loose connections, defective

wire insulation or broken wires. Switches, solenoids and

ignition components may also fail, causing a shorted or

open circuit.

Before attempting any failure diagnosis of the electrical

system, use a test light or voltmeter to check the battery

voltage. If the battery voltage is satisfactory, check the

Hour Meter

cleanliness and tightness of the terminals and ground

connections. A general understanding of electrical

servicing and use of basic test equipment is necessary

for troubleshooting and repair.

Major overhaul or repair of the starting motor or

alternator should be performed by trained technicians

only.

Access to Engine and Hydraulic

Pumps

The hydraulic pumps are accessed by lifting the seat

platform. The seat platform is hinged at the front. To

raise it, release seat latch and tilt seat platform up and

forward. The seat platform catch (See Figure 4-4) will

prevent the seat from going all the way over. However, if

more access is desired under the seat platform, the seat

platform catch can be raised allowing the seat to pivot

more. Make certain to place the control arms in the park

brake position and lift the seat arms before raising the

seat.

!WARNING!

Always wear adequate eye protection when servicing the

hydraulic system and battery.

Hydraulic System

!WARNING!

Hydraulic oil escaping under pressure can penetrate skin.

Hydraulic oil may cause infection in a minor cut or opening in

the skin. If exposed to hydraulic ﬂuid, see a doctor at once.

Before applying pressure to hydraulic system, make sure all

connections are tight and all hoses and lines are in good

condition. To ﬁnd a leak under pressure, use a piece of

cardboard or wood, never use your hands. Relieve all pressure

in the system before disconnecting or working on hydraulic

lines. To relieve pressure, place control levers in park.

The 1.0 U.S. gallon (3.79 liter) hydraulic reservoir is

located in front of the engine and under the operator’s

platform. See Figure 4-5.

Check oil level in hydraulic system after every 50 hours

of operation or weekly, whichever occurs first. Check

more often if system appears to be leaking or otherwise

malfunctioning.

Fluid level should be 1” from top of reservoir. Use only

SAE 10W40 SG, SF/CC, CD service motor oil.

Change hydraulic system filter element (Land Pride P/N

831-030C) (Fig. 4-5) after first 50 hours of mower

operation, then replace filter and oil in reservoir every

500 hours thereafter. When changing hydraulic oil use 1/

2 unit (approximately 3.5 oz.) of Lubrizol additive (Land

Pride

P/N 821-041C). This additive, available from your Land

Pride dealer, will increase the performance life of the

hydraulic system components.

The system filter is located directly in front of the

hydraulic reservoir. A standard oil filter wrench is used to

change filter, threads are right handed. Use an Accu Z

approved filter element only (Land Pride P/N 831-030C).

of the system before engaging the steering control

lever.

4. Stop the engine and check the filter and connections

for leaks.

5. Check the hydraulic reservoir for specified oil level.

Add clean oil as necessary.

Clean or replace hydraulic reservoir cap annually. Cap

may be cleaned by dipping in or flushing with cleaning

solvent. Follow manufacturer’s instructions and

warnings for application of solvent type selected.

Fuel System

!WARNING!

Observe usual fuel handling precautions; do not smoke while

refueling, do not ﬁll tank with engine running or while engine is

hot, allow engine to cool before storing machine inside a

building, keep fuel away from open ﬂame or spark and store

machine away from open ﬂame or spark if there is fuel in the

tank. Read and observe safety precautions at front of this

manual.

The fuel tanks are located in the mower’s fenders. (See

Figure 4-6) Total capacity for the fuel tanks is 12 U.S.

gallons.

Use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of

87 or higher.

Refer to Figure 4-7. The fuel filter is installed in the fuel

line between fuel tanks and engine fuel pump on the front

side of the engine. Replace filter annually or after every

500 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.

When replacing the fuel filter, check the fuel line hoses

for any cracks or leaks. Replace as needed.

Engine Oil and Filter

Refer to Figure 4-8:

Check engine oil daily and after every 4 hours of

operation. Crankcase dipstick and oil filler tube are

located at the rear of the machine. Mower must be sitting

level when checking oil. Refer to engine manual and

maintenance schedule for oil recommendation and

capacities.

Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 hours of

operation, per the engine manufacturer’s

recommendations after that. If mower is being operated

in extremely dirty conditions, then it is recommended oil

be changed more frequently.

The oil drain and oil filter are located at the rear of the

engine.

Engine Air Filter

Refer to Figure 4-9

Perform engine air filter maintenance per Maintenance

Schedule on page 31.

A specially designed dry filter is standard equipment on

the mower and supplies clean combustion air to the

engine.

Figure 4-9

Many engine failures can be attributed to improper air

cleaner servicing. Ingested dust and dirt will cause

cylinder, piston and bearing damage in a few hours.

Dusted engines will result from:

1. Over servicing the air filter element.

2. Improper installation of an air filter element.

3. Damaged filter, seals or canister.

4. Incorrect air filter element size and/or use of poorly

designed aftermarket air filter elements.

Air cleaner servicing is an inexpensive maintenance

check that can prevent costly non-warrantable

premature engine damage.

Over Servicing

Over servicing occurs when an air filter element is

removed for cleaning or replacement before it is

necessary. Each time the filter is removed a small

amount of dirt and dust could fall in the intake system.

This accumulated dirt can cause a dusted engine. It only

takes a few grams of ingested dirt over the normal

service life of an engine to cause a dusted engine.

Do not clean element, replace with a new element

only. Cleaning used air filter elements, through improper

cleaning procedures, can get dust on the inside of the

filter causing dirt ingestion and engine failure.

It is important to note that whenever an air filter element

is cleaned by any method, the person or company

performing the cleaning assumes responsibility for the

integrity of the filter from then on. The Donaldson

warranty for air filters expires upon cleaning or

servicing in any manner because the condition of the

filter after servicing is completely out of their

control. Therefore, on a dust ingested engine failure,

there will be no warranty consideration if the air filter

element has been cleaned or serviced in any manner.

A partially dirty air filter element works better than a new

element. Therefore, a dirty filter element is not bad for

the engine unless it is excessively restricting the air flow

and engine performance is affected. The reason is

simple. The media in the filter must be porous to allow air

to pass through it. When dirty air passes through the

filter, the dirt plugs some of the holes in the media and

actually acts as part of the filter media. When the next

round of dirt enters, the first dirt helps filter out even

smaller particles making the filter more efficient at

stopping dirt from entering the engine. This is referred to

as barrier filtration.

Of course, at some point the filter media becomes too

clogged to allow air to pass.

The mowing conditions will determine the frequency of

air filter element changing.

Improper Installation

Dust must not leak past the seals on each end of the air

filter element. The filter must be aligned within the

canister and properly seated for an effective seal so that

no dirt can enter the engine.

Damaged Filter, Seals or Canister

Never bang or bump the filter element against the tire or

any solid object, as dust and dirt particles will be forced

through the media causing continual passing of dirt into

the engine. Visually inspect the outside of the air cleaner

canister periodically for external damage and replace if

necessary.

Incorrect Air Filter Element

Use only the correct Donaldson air filter element, Land

Pride part number 839-312C, which is designed to fit the

canister properly. Land Pride air filter elements have the

correct media composition, filter area, micron size and

dimensions. Always use genuine Land Pride filters.

Many aftermarket filters have been found to be

incompatible with Land Pride’s canisters and engines.

The air filter must remain intact to block passage of dirt

and foreign particles from entering the engine. Being

inclined to disbelieve the need for more expensive air

filter elements used on gasoline engines may cause

some individuals to opt for a less expensive part.

The filter element must be sufficient size and

construction to withstand stresses, caused by rapid

cycling of the air volume demanded by the engine,

without cracking or tearing under fatigue and pressure

(especially diesel engines). Therefore, Land Pride and

the engine manufacturers have carefully selected a

reliable filter designed to fit the needs of the engines. The

filter specified is a Donaldson filter, Land Pride part

number 839-312C.

Owners should be reminded that failure to use original

equipment replacement parts is an alteration and will not

be considered for warranty in the event of engine

damage.

Engine Air Filter Service Procedure

1. Release clamps and remove element. Clean the

canister with a damp cloth.

2. Before installing a new element, inspect it by placing

a bright light inside and rotate the element slowly,

looking for any holes or tears in the paper. Also check

gaskets for cuts or tears. Do not attempt to use a

damaged element which will allow abrasive particles

to enter the engine.

3. Reinstall the dust cup. Make sure it seals all the way

around the air cleaner body, then tighten the clamps.

4. Check all fittings and clamps periodically for

tightness and inspect hoses for holes or cracks.

5. Periodically check the intake hose for signs of

ingested dust. Locate and repair the source of

ingested dirt.

6. Never operate a machine without an air filter

installed.

General Engine Maintenance

Detailed instructions and recommendations for break-in

and regular maintenance are specified in the Engine

Operator’s manual. Please refer to this manual for

engine servicing, lubricating oil levels with quality and

viscosity recommendations, bolt torques, etc. The

engine warranty is backed by the engine manufacturer.

Special attention should be paid to applicable data which

Belt Replacement

Refer to Figure 4-10 and Figure 4-11:

Replace belts which show signs of severe cuts, tears,

excessive weather checking and cracking or burns

caused by slipping. Slight raveling of belt covering does

not indicate failure, trim ravelings with a sharp knife.

Inspect the belt pulley grooves and flanges for wear. A

new belt, or one in good condition, should never run

against the bottom of the groove. Replace the pulley

when this is the case, otherwise belt will lose power and

slip excessively.

Never pry a belt to get it on a pulley as this will cut or

damage the fibers of the belt covering.

Keep oil and grease away from belts, and never use belt

dressings. Any of these will destroy the belt composition

in a very short time.

Mower Blade Maintenance

Lift Jack Option

For easier blade maintenance a lift jack can be

purchased from your Land Pride Dealer and easily

assembled to your mower. Refer to Figure 4-12.

Check the mower blades daily, they are the key to power

efficiency and well groomed turf. Keep them sharp, a dull

blade will tear rather than cut the grass, leaving a brown

ragged top on the grass within a few hours. A dull blade

also requires more power from the engine.

Replace any blade which is bent, cracked or broken.

Never attempt to straighten a bent blade by heating, or

weld a cracked or broken blade as the blade may break

and cause serious injury.

!DANGER!

Never work with blades while engine is running or deck clutch

is engaged. Always place deck clutch in the disengaged

position, place control levers in park position and turn engine

off. Block up mower when you must work under it. Do not use

jack as blocks. Jack is for lifting only. Separate blocks must be

used prior to servicing under mower. Wear gloves when

handling blades. Always check for blade damage if mower

strikes rock, branch or other foreign object during mowing!

Mower Blade Removal

Use a 3/4" wrench to remove the 1/2" cap screw holding

blade to spindle saddle from underneath.

Sharpen the blades on a grinder following pattern as

shown in Figure 4-13. Touch-up sharpening can be done

with a file.

Check the blades for balance following grinding. A

commercial balancing tool is available through most

hardware supply stores, or balancing can be done by

placing the blade on an inverted line punch or 1/2" bolt.

Blade should not lean or tilt. Spin the blade slowly, blade

should not wobble. If blade is out of balance, true it up

before reinstalling.

Lay the blade on a flat surface and check for distortion.

Replace any distorted blade. Refer Figure 4-14 and

Figure 4-15 on next page.

Table of Contents

Do not re-use spindle bolts which have stripped, worn or

undercut threads. Refer to “Torque Values Chart” on

page 44 when replacing hardware for proper torque.

!WARNING!

When mounting blades, rotate them after installation to ensure

blade tips do not touch each other or sides of the mower.

!WARNING!

Failure to correctly torque the bolt may result in the loss of the

blade which can cause serious injury.

STORAGE

When storing the unit at the end of the mowing season,

the following steps should be taken to ensure readiness

for the next mowing season.

1. Remove all grass, dirt, and trash. Clean and touch up

all scrapes with Land Pride spray paint.

2. Clean paper air filter. Replace if necessary. Wash

and re-oil foam pre-cleaner.

3. Check thoroughly for any worn or damaged parts

that need replacing and order them from your dealer.

4. Thoroughly lubricate machine, according to

lubrication instructions.

5. Check hydraulic oil level. Add oil if necessary.

Change oil and filter every 500 hours. Lubrizol

additive is required. Refer to Maintenance section.

6. Block mower up so weight is off tires.

7. Protect battery from freezing temperatures.

Occasionally recharging battery during storage will

extend battery life.

8. Perform separate engine preparation as listed below.

9. Store mower in a clean, dry place.

Preparation of Engine for Storage

When engine is to be unused for long periods, proceed

as follows:

1. Run engine for a minimum of 15 minutes.

2. Drain oil from crankcase while engine is still warm.

3. Refill with fresh oil of proper viscosity.

4. Drain fuel tank and run the engine until it stops from

lack of fuel. Gasoline evaporates if left in carburetor

for long periods, forming gum and varnish deposits in

carburetor. These deposits will cause engine

flooding and loss of power.

5. Remove and replace fuel filter if not done in previous

100 hours.

6. Remove spark plugs and pour a tablespoon of

engine oil into each spark plug hole. Install plugs, but

do not reconnect plug leads.

7. Crank engine with starter at least a dozen revolutions

to distribute oil over cylinder walls and valve

mechanism.

8. Clean exterior surface of engine. Spread a light film

of oil over any exposed metal surfaces of engine that

are subject to corrosion.

9. Clean dirt and chaff from cylinders and fins, blower

housing and muffler.

10. Check oil filler cap and fuel tank cap to make certain

they are securely in place.

New Season Preparation

Before starting the mower following post season storage,

the following servicing is required:

1. Clean mower, removing trash and dirt accumulation.

2. Check engine oil and hydraulic oil levels.

3. Fill fuel tank with fresh gasoline. Run machine at half

speed for 5 minutes, checking operation of steering

control levers. Stop engine and check for oil leaks,

loose fittings and so forth.

4. Tighten any bolts that have loosened and make sure

all hair pins, cotter pins and clevis pins are in place.

5. Install all safety shields and review safety

precautions listed in this manual.

6. Check and inflate tires to 8-12 psi.

7. Reconnect spark plug leads to spark plug.
