Leveling
Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level surface.
Make sure the tires are inated to the correct pressure.
See “Technical Data” under Transmission. If tires are
under or over inated, you can not properly adjust your
deck.
NOTE: It may be easier to adjust the front lift linkages
by removing the oor pan before any adjustments are
made.
Side-to-side adjustment
1. Raise the deck into the four inch 4" (102 mm)
cutting position.
2. Measure height from the bottom edge of the deck to
the ground at both front corners. Distance “A” should
be the same, or within
3
/16" (5 mm) of an inch.
3. If adjustment is necessary, make adjustment to one
side of the deck only.
4. Remove the securing ring from the top pin and the
bottom clevis pin. Push bottom clevis pin through deck
lift connector while supporting deck. Adjust by moving
the deck lift connector to a new hole to lower or raise
that specic corner of the deck. The round hole closest
to the long slot is the shorter length and will raise the
deck, the round hole farthest away from the long slot is
the longer of the two and would lower the deck when
used.
5. Recheck measurements after adjustment.
