LEVELING WING SECTIONS WITH CENTER
1.To level the wing sections with the deck center, adjust the leveling screw between the wing axle and the center axle. To lower the wing, loosen the jamnut and shorten the screw assembly, lengthen the screw assembly to raise the wing. After wings are leveled, retighten jamnuts to maintain settings.
6.2 Setting Deck Pitch
To facilitate safe and efficient operation, the mower should be operated with the deck approximately 3/4”
LOWER IN THE FRONT THAN THE REAR.
Operating the mower at this pitch will allow the mower to cut the grass only once and requires less work from the tractor. In addition, a more even distribution of the clippings from the rear of the mower will be achieved with this deck pitch.
1.Adjust the leveling rods linking the tongue to the rear axle until the front of the mower is at least 3/4” lower in the front that than the rear. To lower the front, lengthen the leveling rods and to raise the front shorten the leveling rods. IMPORTANT: Adjust the leveling rods the same amount and maintain equal tension in the rods. Improper adjustment may cause rods to snap or bend. Retighten the jamnuts after the deck pitch has been set.
