MAINTENANCE
LEFT-TO-RIGHT LEVELING
Inspection
1. Prepare the lawn tractor as previously outlined.
2. Set the height adjustment lever to the
number 3 position. Make sure the anti-scalp
rollers do not touch the ground. Put on
heavy gloves, as you need to rotate the
blades.
3. Rotate the blades, so they are parallel to the
front axle. Measure the height of the blade
tip at points A and B as shown. B should be
0 - 5 mm (0 w 3/16 inch) higher than A.
4. If B measures more than 5 mm (3/16 inch)
higher, or is lower than A, you’ll need to
adjust the right side height of the mower
deck. TIlBAAAACDR

Adjustment
1. Locate the right rear lift rod, where the
deck is attached to the rear of the lawn
tractor frame. The threaded section of
the rod allows the position of the mower
deck connecting link to be adjusted up
or down, thus raising or lowering the
right side of the mower deck.
2. Loosen (and turn as needed) the top
nut; turn the self-locking nut to adjust
the position of the connecting link on
the lift rod.
3. To raise the right side of the mower deck, turn both nuts upward,
toward the lawn tractor frame. To lower the right side of the
mower deck, turn both nuts downward, toward the mower deck.
4. Recheck the measurements of A and B. When a proper
measurement is made, hold the regular nut in place, then securely
tighten the self-locking nut.
