NOTE: The deck and/or attachment should be installed before
making adjustments to this spring.
Place the deck/attachment into the lowest position for making
adjustments. This ensures that the spring is extended the furthest.
The bolt can be accessed from the rear of the tractor, inside the left
rear wheel. Turning adjusting bolt clockwise will decrease the manual
effort required for lifting attachments; turning counterclockwise will
increase the effort needed to lift the attachment.
