Adjustment
NOTE: Before adjusting the deck level, the deck lift rod
timing must be checked and/or adjusted.
1. Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage the
PTO, stop the engine and engage the parking brake.
Rear tires must be inflated to 15 psi (1,03 bar); front
tires to 25 psi (1,72 bar).
2. Lock the deck lift pedal in the 5” (12,7cm) position.
Place the deck height adjustment pin in the 4"
position and lower the deck lift pedal until the arm
contacts the pin.
3. Place the 2 x 4 blocks under each corner of the
mower deck with the 3-1/2” sides being vertical.
Place a 1/4” (0,64cm) thick spacer on top of the rear
2 x 4’s. See Figure 18.
6. For 61” Deck Models: Adjust the front eyebolts until
the chains are tight and the deck is still resting on the
2 x 4’s. Tighten the jam nuts. See Figure 19.
For 72” Deck Models: Loosen the nuts and allow
the front of the deck to rest on the 2 x 4’s. Slide the
chains down in the slots until the chains are tight and
tighten the nuts. See Figure 19.
7. Loosen the nuts and allow the rear of the deck to rest
on the 2 x 4’s and 1/4” spacers. Slide the chains
down in the slots until the chains are tight and tighten
the nuts. See Figure 19.
8. Remove all the 2 x 4’s and spacers from under the
mower deck.
9. For your safety, DO NOT handle mower blades
with bare hands. Position the outside mower blades
so that they face front-to-back (Figure 20).
10.Measure from the front tip of the blade from the
cutting edge to the ground. Measure from the rear
tip of the blade from the cutting edge to the ground.
Repeat this process for the other side of the
machine. The front measurements should be 4” (10,2
cm), the back measurements should be 4-1/4” (10,8
cm). If the measurements are greater than 1/8” (3,17
mm) of what they should be adjust the deck height
until they are correct.
