• Determine the approximate distance necessary for proper adjustment and proceed, if necessary, to the next step.

•Loosen the two jam nuts on the rear side of the deck stabilizer bracket. See Figure 7A.

Side to Side

•Locate the two lock nuts on the opposite side of the stabilizer bracket. See Figure 7A. Tighten the lock nuts to raise the front of the deck; loosen the lock nuts to lower the front of the deck.

•Retighten the two jam nuts loosened earlier when proper adjustment is achieved.

If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a side-to-side adjustment can be performed. Adjust if necessary as follows:

WARNING: Turn the tractor’s engine off, remove the key from the ignition switch and apply the tractor’s parking brake before making any adjustments to the cutting deck.

•With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface, place the lift lever in the top notch (highest position) and rotate the both blades so that they are perpendicular with the tractor.

•Measure the distance from the outside of the left blade tip to the ground and the distance from the outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both measurements taken should be equal. If they’re not, proceed to the next step.

•Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex cap screw on the left deck hanger bracket. See Figure 7B.

•Balance the deck so that both blade tip measurements taken earlier are equal.

•Retighten the hex cap screw on the left deck hanger bracket when proper adjustment is achieved.
