Troubleshooting

DECK LIFT ROD TIMING

ADJUSTMENT

1.Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine and engage the parking brake. Rear tires must be inflated to 15 psi (1,03 bar); front tires to 25 psi (1,72 bar).

2.To check the inner lift rod timing, measure and record the distance between the inner lift pivots and the inner rod pivots. Repeat for other side of unit. See Figure 38.

3.To check the outer lift rod timing, measure and record the distance between the outer lift pivots and the outer rod pivots. Repeat for other side of unit. See Figure 38.

4.If the measurements for the inner rods are equal, and the measurements for the outer rods are equal, no further adjustment is required. If the measurements are NOT equal (greater than 1/8” (3,17mm) difference), adjustment is required, continue with Step 5.

5.Lock the deck lift pedal in the 5” (12,7cm) position. Remove the cutting height adjustment pin and lower the mower deck.

6.To ensure that the deck is in the lowest position, push the pedal by hand towards the rear of the unit and install the height adjustment pin in the 3” (7.6cm) position to hold in place. See Figure 39.

7.Block up the mower deck until all hanger chains are slack.

8.Refer to Figure 40. To adjust the inner lift rod, adjust the 5/8” hex nuts on either side of the front lift pivot until the measurements are equal. Repeat for other side.

9.Refer to Figure 40. To adjust the outer lift rod, remove the coil pins securing the outer lift rod to the lift levers. Remove the outer lift rod from the unit and add or remove 5/8” SAE washers from in between the deck lift rod and the lift link until measurements are equal. Reinstall the coil pins and washer (on front lift lever). Repeat for other side.

10.Remove blocks from under the mower deck.

11.While pushing the pedal by hand towards the rear of the unit, remove the the cutting height adjustment pin from in front of the deck lift pedal arm. Lift mower deck and reinstall adjustment pin in desired mowing height.
