Figure 6-6. Cutter Deck Pitch Adjustment

- NOTE -

To prevent the cutter deck from teetering, all four

(4)cutter deck hanging chains must have tension on them. If all four chains do not have tension on them and the deck teeters, you must readjust the cutter deck as outlined in the procedures above. All measurements should be taken from the top edge of the deck as the deck has an uneven bottom edge.

Cutter Deck Height

The cutter deck height adjustment is made to ensure that the cutter deck is cutting at the height indicated on the cutting height index gauge.To check for proper deck height, be sure that the mower is on a flat, level surface and the tires are properly inflated.

1.Place the cutter deck in the 3" cutting position. Push on the cutter deck foot pedal and pull up on the cutter deck release lever to lower the cutter deck.

2.Check the measurement from the floor to the cutter blade tip. If the measurement is not 3", an adjustment can be made using the deck level links

3.Loosen the elastic stop nuts securing the deck level links on both sides of the cutter deck. See Figure 6-7.
