The Pitch Of The Mower Blades From Side-To-Side

(Figure 15)

•Should be within 1/4" (6.35 mm) as measured on each side of the mower deck.

NOTICE: This measurement must be taken when the mower blade ends are perpendicular (at a right angle) to the frame of the unit.

Adjusting The Mower Deck To Adjust Mower Blade Height And Pitch

(Figure 17)

NOTICE: Adjusting the mower deck will adjust the height and pitch of the mower blades.

1.Adjust the trunnions first and re-take the three measurements required to level and adjust the pitch of the mower deck. These measurements are:

a.The distance from the mower blades to the ground.

b.The forward pitch of the mower blades.

c.The pitch of the mower blades from side-to-side.

2.Repeat step 1 as needed until all three measurements are within the tolerances specified.
