MAINTENANCE

Adjusting the Mower Deck

Leveling 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 under Transmission. If tires are under or over inflated, the deck cannot be properly adjusted.

The deck should be adjusted slightly higher in the rear.

NOTE: To insure accuracy of leveling procedure, mower deck drive belt must be installed prior to leveling deck.

1.Wear heavy gloves. Turn each outer blade tip to align front to rear with the deck (1) or side-to-side

(2).

2.Measure from the floor surface up to the bottom of the blade tip on the discharge side of the mower deck. Record the measurement.

3.Move to the opposite side, check that measurement is the same. If adjustment is required—with a ¾" or adjustable wrench, turn the lift link adjustment nuts on either side counter clockwise to lower or clockwise to raise. Adjust until both measurements are equal.

4.Turn any blade to align with the deck in front- to-rear manner. If the front blade tip does not measure 1/8" to ½" higher in the rear—with a 5/8 or adjustable wrench, turn the nuts on the front suspension linkage. Clockwise raises the front of the mower, counterclockwise will lower the front. Adjust nuts until rear of mower deck is positioned level to 1/8" higher in the rear than the side-to-side measurement.

NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a standard measurement position. Depending on the type of grass being mowed or environmental conditions, additional adjustments may be required to achieve the desired cut.
