Leveling the Deck
(con’t.)
Side to Side
If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a
side to side adjustment can be performed. Adjust if
necessary as follows:
• With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface,
place the deck lift lever in the top notch (highest
position) and rotate both blades so that they are
perpendicular with the tractor.
• Measure the distance from the outside of the left
blade tip to the ground and the distance from the
outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both
measurements taken should be equal. If they’re
not, proceed to the next step.
Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex screw on the left
deck hanger bracket. See Figure 14.

• Balance the deck by using a wrench to turn the
adjustment gear (found immediately behind the hex
cap screw just loosened) clockwise/up or
counterclockwise/down.
• The deck is properly balanced when both blade tip
measurements taken earlier are equal.
• Retighten the hex cap screw on the left deck
hanger bracket when proper adjustment is
achieved.
