CARE AND MAINTENANCE
LEVELING THE DECK:
A.Set the tire pressure on all four tires.
B.Move the tractor to a hard, level surface (i.e. concrete or blacktop). Place a 2x4 board under all four corners of the deck shell, just inside the anti-scalping wheels. Lower the deck down onto the boards. The deck must rest on the boards, not on the anti-scalping wheels. Adjust the deck hangers longer or shorter until the deck “just” comes off of the boards. Remove the boards and verify that the deck is hanging on all four deck hangers, re-adjust if necessary. Lock the jam nuts on the deck hangers. (Note: the two rear deck hangers will be easier to adjust if the fender skirts are removed.)
