Checking Mower Lift With Loader Sub-Frame
Installed
If
you have a front loader sub
frame installed, you must use the following
procedure to adjust the mower linkage
to
avoid damage
to the deck
or
linkage.
1.
Slowly move the Lift Selector Lever to the "UP"
position to raise the deck. Immediately lower the
deck at the first indication of resistance.
2. Check the clearance between the deck stops
and the front loader sub frame. Adjust the
clearance to 5 mm (0.20 in) by adjusting the left
lift
rod length (shortening the
lift
rod raises the
deck).
The
fully
raised position of the deck will be lower
than normal with the loader sub frame installed.
You will only be able to raise the deck to a maxi-
mum cutting height of
4
in.
