Deck Level Adjustments
Leveling the deck must be done in the following manner
and order:
1. Checktire pressures to make certain theyare properly
inflated before starting to level deck. See “Tire
Inflation Chart” page 44.
!
WARNING!
Stop engine. Make sure deckclutch switch is in the down (OFF)
position. Place control levers in the brake position before
leaving machine.
2. Park the unit on a flat surface.
3. Raise deck and place 3" of blocking under all 4
corners of the deck. This will set the cutting height at
3“. Refer to Figure 3-14.
4. Set cutting height at 3" on the height indicator by
placing the height adjusting stop in the 3" hole, and
turning the height stop so that the flat side is against
the stop handle. Refer to Figure Figure 3-15.
5. Clamp the height adjusting stop against the stop
handle (Figure 3-15). This will assure that the height
will not move during the setting process. Otherwise,
spring pressure from the deck lift springs will tend to
pull the stop away from the handle.
6. Refer to Figure 3-16, Figure 3-17 & Figure 3-18.
Loosen all nuts on the deck lift threaded rods, and the
hardware on the adjuster (on the right front), until all
the deck lift chains are loose, and the deck is sitting
tightly on all four blocks.
NOTE: Back of deck will automatically be set 1/4"
higher.
