Planetary Wheel Drive Removal
1. Park machine on a level surface, lower cutting units,
stop engine, engage parking brake, and remove key
from the ignition switch.
2. Drain oil from planetary wheel drive/brake assembly
(see Operator's Manual).

ing other service, use correct blocks, hoists,
and jacks. Make sure machine is parked on a
solid, level surface such as a concrete floor.

blocks to support the raised machine. If the ma-
chine is not properly supported by blocks or
jack stands, the machine may move or fall,
which may result in personal injury.

Jacking Instructions in Chapter 1 − Safety). Support ma-
chine with jack stands or solid wood blocks.
4. Remove front wheel assembly.

Motors in Service and Repairs section of Chapter 4 −
Hydraulic System).
6. Remove brake assembly (see Brake Assembly).
7. Support planetary assembly to prevent it from falling.
Loosen and remove flange head screws that secure
planetary assembly to frame. Remove planetary as-
sembly from machine.
