MAINTENANCE

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” on page 62. If tires are under or over inflated, you can not properly adjust your deck.

NOTE: It may be easier to adjust the front lift linkages by removing the floor pan before any adjustments are made.

Side-to-side adjustment

1.Raise the deck into the four inch 4” (102 mm) cutting position.

2.Measure height from the bottom edge of the deck to the ground at both front corners. Distance “A” should be the same, or within 3/16” (5 mm) of an inch.

3.If adjustment is necessary, make adjustment to one side of the deck only

4.Remove the securing ring from the top pin and the bottom clevis pin. Push bottom clevis pin through deck lift connector while supporting deck. Adjust by moving the deck lift connector to a new hole to lower or raise that specific corner of the deck. The round hole closest to the long slot is the shorter length and will raise the deck, the round hole farthest away from the long slot is the longer of the two and would lower the deck when used.

5.Recheck measurements after adjustment.
