Cutter Deck Pitch

Cutter Deck Height

The pitch of the cutter deck should be equal between the front and rear of the cutter deck for proper cutting performance. To check for proper deck pitch, be sure that the mower is on a flat, level surface and the tires are properly inflated.

Check the distance from the top of the cutter deck to the floor at the rear RH side of the cutter deck directly behind the cutter deck hanging chains. Next check the distance from the top of the cutter deck to the floor at the front RH side of the cutter deck directly in front of the cutter deck hanging chains. The measurement at the front of the cutter deck should be the same as the rear of the deck. Make these measurements at the LH side of the cutter deck also. If the measurement at the front of the deck is not the same, the cutter deck pitch must be adjusted as follows:

1.Loosen the jam nut on both adjusting rods. See Figure 6-5.

The cutter deck height adjustment is made to ensure that the cutter deck is cutting at the height indicated on the cutting height index gauge. To check for proper deck height, be sure that the mower is on a flat, level surface and the tires are properly inflated.

1.Place the cutter deck in the transport position. Loosen the jam nuts on both ends of the deck height control rod. See Figure 6-6.

2.Using an adjustable jaw pliers, turn the adjusting rods on the non-threaded portion of the rod until the deck is equal front to back on both the RH and the LH side of the cutter deck. Tighten both lock nuts.

- NOTE -

To prevent the cutter deck from teetering, all four

(4)cutter deck hanging chains must have tension on them. If all four chains do not have tension on them and the deck teeters, you must readjust the cutter deck as outlined in the procedures above. All measurements should be taken from the top edge of the deck as the Velocity Plus decks have an uneven bottom edge.
