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

To level deck

Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level surface. Make sure the tires are inflated to the correct pressure. See “Technical Data” under Transmission. If tires are under or over inflated, you cannot properly adjust your deck.

Four slots control the height and pitch of the mower deck. The deck should be adjusted slightly higher in the rear.

NOTE: To insure accuracy of leveling proce- dure, mower deck drive belt must be installed prior to leveling deck.

1.Wear heavy gloves. Turn each outer blade tip to align with the deck or in a side-to-side manner.

2.Measure from the floor surface up to the bottom of the blade tip on the discharge side of the mower deck.

Retain this measurement. Move to the opposite side, check that measurement is the same. If adjustment is required, loosen the locknut and move mounting bolt up or down in slot until both side-to-side measurements are equal. Retain measurement.
