CUTTERDECK LEVEL SETTING

WARNING: PREVENT ACCIDENTS - Remove the ignition key and disconnect the spark plug lead before making any adjustments.

To level the cutterdeck:

Ensure that the tractor is on a firm and level surface.

Ensure that the parking brake is engaged.

Check that tyre pressures are within prescribed limits.

Ensure that all four cutterdeck anti-scalp wheels are in their highest position.

Lift the plastic cover at the base of the height of cut notches to reveal the deck levelling notch

Move the height of cut lever into the deck levelling notch.

Loosen the primary drive belt to the deck by releasing it from the drive ten- sioner pulley.

Loosen the left and right wing nuts at the rear and ensure that the four anti- scalp wheels are firmly in contact with the ground. Shake the cutterdeck briskly and briefly in order to ensure that any slackness is removed from the cutterdeck lift linkages. Re-tighten both the left and right wing nuts.

Replace the primary drive belt, ensuring that the tensioner pulley is in position.

Select the desired height of cut and relocate the deck levelling notch cover.

Mow for a short distance. If the height of cut is not level, repeat the cutter- deck levelling procedure.
