TRANSMISSION DRIVE BELT

Adjust the transmission drive belt so that there is about a 3/16" deflection with 10 lbs. of pressure. Adjust by loosening idler pulley mounting bolt and sliding the idler left or right to change belt tension.

DRIVE CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

1.Adjust the steering control rods so that there is approximately 3/4" clearance from the bottom of the rod to the bottom of the neutral latch slot when in the

2.Adjust the steering brake rods so that the brakes do not apply until the steering levers are pulled tight to the handles. When the steering levers are locked in the neutral position the machine should move freely.

CUTTER DECK ADJUSTMENTS

Due to the many cutting conditions that exist, it is difficult to suggest a cutter deck setting that will work for every lawn. There are two adjustments that can be made on these decks, pitch and height.

PITCH is the angle of the blades (comparing front to rear). A 1/4" downward pitch (front of deck down) is recommended for best cutting performance.

HEIGHT is the nominal distance the blade is off of the ground. This measurement is made with the blades pointed side to side and distance is measured between cutting tip and ground. (Also see Blade Height Adjust- ment, next page).

Changes to the cutting height can be achieved by reposi- tioning the cutter deck. (This adjustment will also effect the pitch of the deck). There are three available positions (See Figure 5).

LOW CUT (1 3/4" to 3")

MID RANGE (2 1/2" to 3 3/4")

HIGH CUT

(3 1/4" to 4 1/2")
