MAINTENANCE

Adjusting the Mower Deck

WARNING!

Before performing any service or adjustment checklist:

1.Engage the parking brake.

2.Place the blade-switch in the disengaged position.

3.Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position and remove the key.

4.Make sure the blades and all moving parts have completely stopped.

5.Disconnect the spark plug wire from all spark plugs and place the wire where it cannot come in contact with the plug.

Leveling

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

2.Check the pressure in all four tires. See “Technical Data” section.

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

4.Lower the deck onto the 2” x 4”´s. The rear of the deck is approxemately 1/4” deeper than the front. This gives the deck a proper pitch front to back when lowered onto the 2” x 4” guides.

5.Set cutting height to 4”.

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

7.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.Position blade tip so it is straight forward.

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

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

(50 mm).

WARNING!

Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling.
