CARE AND MAINTENANCE
LEVELING THE DECK:
A. Set the tire pressure on all four tires.
B. Move the tractor to a hard, level surface (i.e.
concrete or blacktop). Place a 2x4 board under
all four corners of the deck shell, just inside the
anti-scalping wheels. Lower the deck down onto
the boards. The deck must rest on the boards,
not on the anti-scalping wheels. Adjust the deck
hangers longer or shorter until the deck just
comes off of the boards in front. Raise the rear
1/4 above the boards. Remove the boards and
verify that the deck is hanging on all four deck
hangers, re-adjust if necessary. Lock the jam nuts
on the deck hangers. (Note: the two rear deck
hangers will be easier to adjust if the fender skirts
are removed.)
