Side te Side
If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a
side to side adjustment can be performed. Adjust if
necessary as follows:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex bolt on the left
deck hanger bracket. See Figure 14.

4. Balance the deck by using a wrench to turn the
adjustment gear (See Figure 14) up or down.
5. The deck is properly balanced when both blade tip
measurements taken earlier are equal.
6. Retighten the hex bolt on the left deck hanger
bracket when proper adjustment is achieved.
ParkingBrakeAdjustment
_, WARNING: Never attempt to adjust the
brakes while the engine is running. Always
disengage PTO, move shift lever into neutral
position, stop engine and remove key to
prevent unintended starting.
If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when
the brake pedal is completely depressed, or if the
tractor's rear wheels can roll with the parking brake
applied, the brake is in need of adjustment. The brake
disc can be found on the right side of the transmission
in the rear of the tractor. Adjust if necessary as follows:
Looking at the transmission from beneath therear
of the tractor, locate the compression spring and
brake disc. See Figure 15.

Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex nut found on
the right side of the brake assembly. See Figure 15.
Insert a feeler gauge (set at .011") between the
brake disk and the brake puck.
NOTE: If a feeler gauge is unavailable, a typical
business card is approximately .011" thick.
Retighten the hex nut loosened earlier, leaving a
.011" gap between the brake disc and the brake
puck.
