Adjusting the Mower Deck

Leveling

1.Position the mower on a level, preferably concrete, surface.

2.Check the pressure in all four tires. See “Technical Data” on page 78.

3.Raise the mower on lengths of 2" x 4" placed edgewise under the cutting deck from front to rear (see illustration).

4.Set the cutting height to 4” using the lever.

5.Adjust the four lower chain bolts so that they are centered in the oblong slots.

6.Move the lifting lever and check that all the chains are equally tensioned. If they are not, adjust the appropriate lower chain bolt in its slot.

Adjusting Cutting Height

1.Raise and secure the deck height lever to the transport position (6").

2.Measure from the cutting edge of the blades to the flat level surface. The distance should be 6" (150 mm).

3.Drop and secure the lever at (for example) the 2" cutting height. Measure as above. The distance should be 2" (50 mm).
