the PTO, stop the engine, and engage the parking
brake. Rear tires must be inflated to 15 psi (103
kPa).
2. Crank the deck height adjustment handle so
that the rear deck lift rod lever (A, Figure 21) is
straight up and down. This is the middle height
adjustment.

cutout is centered on the notched area (D) on the
deck lift rod (E).
4. To check the deck lift rod timing, measure and
record the distance between the lift pivots and
the rod pivots. Repeat for other side of unit. See
Figure 22.

equal, no further adjustment is required. If the
measurements are NOT equal (greater than 1/8”
(3,17 mm) difference,) adjustment is required,
continue with Step 5.

are slack.
