Leakdown Tester - 25 761 05-SPurposeTo determine if valves or rings are leaking by using pressurized air in the combustion chamber.
Leakdown Tester - 25 761 05-SInstructions (cont.)7. Adjust the regulator knob until the gauge needle is in the yellow “set” area at the low end of the scale.8. Connect the tester to the adapter hose while firmly holding the engine at TDC.9. Note the gauge reading and listen for escaping air from the carburetor, exhaust and breather hose.
Leakdown Tester - 25 761 05-S
The gauge reading indicates the severity of the leak.Air Escaping From: Cause
Crankcase Breather Leak Past Rings or Head Gasket Internally
Exhaust Leaking Exhaust Valve
Carburetor Leaking Intake Valve
Tools and Aids Tools and AidsLeakdown Tester - 25 761 05-S
Instructions1. Run Engine For 3-5 Minutes to Warm Up2. Remove Spark Plug(s) and Air Filter4. Rotate Crankshaft Until Piston is at TDC on Compression Stroke5. Ensure Crankshaft is Locked in Position to Continue Testing5. Install Adapter Hose into Spark Plug Hole.6. Connect Air Source of at Least 50 psi to TesterTools and Aids Tools and Aids

Vacuum/Pressure Gauge - 25 761 22-SPurposeTo identify the amount of either pressure or vacuum in the crankcase.
Vacuum/Pressure Gauge - 25 761 22-SInstructions1. Insert the rubber stopper with gauge into the oil fill hole. Note: Make sure the gauge is at “0” reading.2. Start the engine and run at no-load high idle speed (3200-3750 RPM)3. Observe the gauge reading. Movement to the left of “0” is vacuum, and movement to the right indicates pressure.4. Correct crankcase vacuum should be a minimum of 4 Inches of Water Column
Ignition Tester 18Kv - 24 455 02-SPurposeThe 18Kv is used to test for strong, consistent spark output on CD ignition systems.Use when testing Courage and Command Twinignition systems.

Ignition Tester 18Kv - 24 455 02-SInstructions1. Disconnect high tension lead of the ignition to be tested from the spark plug.2. Install the lead onto the appropriate tester.3. Connect the ground clip of the tester to a secure ground location on the block. 4. Engage the starter and observe the spark at the tester. You should find a good blue consistent spark.
Oil Pressure Test Kit - 25 761 06-SPurposeTo check oil system pressure at the oil filter, or any location where a 1/8” pipe tap is accessible.
Oil Pressure Test Kit - 25 761 06-S
Instructions1. With engine off, remove the oil filter and install test adapter with gauge. A two foot hose is supplied in the kit and can be installed between the gauge and adapter.2. Some engines offer alternate locations to check oil pressure. If this is an option, remove the 1/8” pipe plug and install the test gauge.3. Start the engine and observe the reading on the gauge. Minimum oil pressure is 20psi @ 3200 RPM and 6psi @ low idle.

Necessary Diagnostic Tools
Verify Combustion Chamber ConditionCylinder, rings, valvesUse this test when the engine has:Oil consumptionLow powerHard startingOil leaking from lower crank case seal(vertical engines only)Excessive oil from the carburetor air box
Leak Down Tester
Use this test when the engine has:Broken recoil studsHard starting problemsElectric starter failuresDetonationOil consumptionLow powerFor engines with an ACR, typical compression measurements may not be greater than 95psi.
Compression Tester Simulates Running PressureNo need to disassemble the engineCheck system for its ability to hold pressureIf system does not hold pressure, try to determine leak location with out disassembling the engine

Remove side panels.
Check the dampeners to make sure the mower has the correct ones. The joystick dampener (H-2467) has maroon writing and the part number.
Check all linkages; make sure all the ball joints are moving freely. Check for radial (up and down) slack in the cross shaft.

Check the joystick. Test the dampeners in light and heavy position.
Check the shift levers on the pump to see if they are broken. Replace any broken parts.
Remove the fan covers for better accessibility.
Move the joystick forward or back to move the shift lever out of the way to expose the shock valve.

The SR1200 Boss tractor has experienced some hydro belt issues. A mower that has had a belt issue has a tendency to have more.Country Clipper has attributed this to several possible causes:Check the hydro pulley to make sure it is placed on the hydro pump properly.

Check the tension spring to be sure it has the correct tension.
Check the idler pulley to be sure the edges of the lip are not sharp and rough. Make sure the belt is not running against the idler pulley lip (upper or lower).

Make sure the bushings are ok in the idler arm. Replace the belt with the new wrapped D-3777-W belt.
The hydro pulley can be placed on the pump upside down. Be sure to check to see if it is placed on the hydro correctly.
The hydro belt should not run against the lip of the flat idler pulley. Also check the edge of the pulley for extremely sharp edges and rough spots.

The hydro spring extension has two holes in it for the belt that holds the spring. The bolt should be in the inside hole, as shown. The new idler arm (622-306A) comes as an assembly. The pin goes into the Teflon bushing very hard.
The old hydro idler arm (622-167A) has a smaller tube with 2 oil lite bushings pressed into it. The bushings sometimes wear out prematurely, allowing the arm to tip, throwing the belt off.

The difference between the two spindles are the tapered flange and the milled spots for spacer washers on the rear holes. The 609F-019A spindle does not work well with the 660-045A Note the thickness of the flange top and bottom on the 609F-019A spindle.Note the milled circles for spacer washers on the 609F-019A. Also a small amount is cut from the leading edge of the flange to allow it to set flat with the spacer washers. The flange thickness is uniform all the way around on the 660-045A.The 660-045A comes with a metric grease zerk (H-2546), but does not come with the Woodruff Keys.

The only serious problem so far with the 660-045A is that the flange holding the top bearing is too light. This problem is being addressed. If you have a mower with the 609G-019A spindles and spacer washers, use 609F-019A for replacement spindles. If it has a 660-045A, replace with 660-045A spindles.

Country Clipper has changed the wiring harness for simplification and to remove the auxiliary starter solenoid wherever possible. Instead of one harness with wiring and plugs for every mower, we have gone to separate harnesses.

2 E-6340
The E-6340 is the harness used in the recent past. It has all the extra wiring and plugs that make it so confusing.
The E-6340 uses a starter relay on every unit.
The starter circuit is controlled through the ground circuit. The same ground circuit is used for the starter and for the safety circuit.

The E-6400 is the current Boss wiring harness.
It is the same circuit as the E-6340 except the starter circuit is controlled by the power circuit instead of the ground to engage the starter.
The seat switch cannot be bypassed on the E-6400
The joystick is equipped with a plunger switch and the clutch has been changed. The new clutch switch will work on older mowers, but the old switch will not work on the new mowers.

8 E-6417
The E-6417 adapter harness is used with the E-6415 and E-6416. It adapts the harness to Kawasaki engines on JAZEE PRO and Chargers.
The lighted fender kits now come with their own harness. The wires have been removed from all other harnesses.

It has come to our attention that the wires on the E‐6447 Quick Fix Start Adapter kit are wired incorrectly. This could be a potential safety hazard and needs to be corrected immediately.
The blue wire goes to the 87A terminal on the relay. (See attached schematic)
Some have been found on the 87 terminal. If they are wired to the 87 terminal, the relay will work the opposite of the way it was intended. It shuts off the safety circuit in the run position.

The Boss lower linkage rod (647-083P) is basically the same as the Zeton lower linkage (647-024P). If a Zetonlower linkage rod needs to be replaced, it should be replaced with a 647-083P plus 2 H-2465 spacers.
If an old style 3/8” bolt rear deck hanger needs replaced, it should be replaced with a new style ½” assembly. The parts needed are :624-183A Rear Deck Hanger AssyF-1489 ½” Jam Nut642-177 P Hanger PinF-1936 ½-13x3 ½, 2” thread
If an old style 3/8” bolt front hanger assembly needs to be replaced, it should be replaced with the new style ½” assembly. The parts needed to do that are:642-175P Adjustable Hanger EndF-1489 ½” Jam Nut642-177P Hanger PinF-1936 ½-13x3 ½”, 2” threaded
