DECK LIFTING SYSTEM
Three rocker arms are activated by the deck lift handle. This is the right side control. Note the routing of the cable. It drops straight below to the deck.
This center rocker arm lifts the front center of the deck. It also drops through the lower frame but is directed by two pulleys under the mower frame to the front of the deck.
The deck lift system has two springs to assist in raising the deck. The ease of lifting the deck can be adjusted by tightening this nut equally on each spring.

To level the deck, start by lowering the deck lift handle to its lowest position. If the deck is not setting on the ground, turn the nuts under these three brackets until it does. The left and right cables in the rear should then be tightened until the back end of the deck is level across and rides about 1\4 inch higher than the front end.
