DECK ADJUSTMENTS
Deck Leveling
Leveling the deck must be done in the following manner
and order:
1.
Check tire pressures to make certain they are properly
inflated before starting to level deck. The
recommended pressures are as follows:
Drive wheels tire pressure. . . . . . . . . . 8–12 psi
Front wheels tire pressure. . . . . . . . . . 8–12 psi
2.
Park the unit on a hard flat surface.
3.
Using the deck lift pedal, raise and lock the deck in the
transport position. Figure 6-3
4.
Place 3” (76.2 mm) high deck support blocks (two
stacked 2” x 4” blocks can be used to create a 3”
[76.2 mm] high support) at the four corners of the deck
as shown.
NOTE:
The back of deck will automatically
be set 1/4” (6.35 mm) higher. Figure 6-1 & Figure 6-2
5.
Remove the height adjusting stop pin and lower the
deck until it rests on the support blocks. Figure 6-3
6.
Loosen the four flange nuts attaching the four deck
links to the deck. Figure 6-3
7.
Push the deck lift pedal forward, place the height
adjusting stop pin in the indicator hole marked 3.25”
(82.6 mm) and release the pedal.
8.
Unscrew the nut from the eyebolt and slide the eyebolt
out of the mount. This removes the tension from the
deck lift assist spring. Figure 6-4
9.
Pull the pedal rearward so that the transport latch is
held firmly against the deck height adjusting stop pin
and the play in the pivot joint is removed; secure the
pedal in this position (a bungee cord may be used).
10.
Tighten the four deck links to the deck with the flange
nuts clamping on either side of the slot with 48 ft-lbs
(65 N•m) of torque. Release the deck lift pedal and
ensure that the deck can be raised and locked into the
transport position. Figure 6-3
11.
Reinstall the eyebolt and deck lift assist spring. Adjust
the spring tension using the lock nut and nut on the
eyebolt. The spring extension should be 9.50”
(241.3 mm) when locked in the transport position.
Figure 6-4
Stop engine. Make sure the deck clutch switch is
in the down (OFF) position
. Place the steering
control levers in the park brake position before
leaving the machine.
