CARE AND MAINTENANCE

MOWER DECK LEVELING PROCEDURE (continued):

D.Turn both outer blades to align with the deck in front-to-rear manner. Turn left rear adjuster nut up or down until rear of mower deck is positioned level to 1/8” higher in the rear than the side-to-side measurement. At this time, the mower deck will be suspended on (3) points (both front adjusters and the left rear adjuster). Move the right rear adjuster and take out the slack which will be present by turning adjuster locknut up.

E.Confirm measurements once again. Blade tips should be level in a side-to-side manner. In the rear, blade tips should be level to 1/8" higher than side-to-side measurement. In the front, blade tips should be level to 1/8" lower than side-to-side measurement.

NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a base measurement position. Additional adjustment may be required to achieve desired cut for the type of grass or conditions being mowed.
