CAUTION!

Always perform the appropriate maintenance checklists at the proper time interval.

Failure to perform the appropriate maintenance checklists at the proper time interval
will cause damage to the Articulator, unsafe operating conditions and substandard
performance.

Warranty issues are dependent on proper maintenance.
Along with completing the Pre-Operation Equipment Inspection Checklist each time you
operate the Articulator, complete the following Maintenance Checklists at the indicated
time intervals.
5.1 Mower Deck Leveling Adjustment
The mowing decks come leveled from the Lastec factory. Should the decks require reset-
ting during the course of maintenance, an eccentric cam in the ball joint of the deck pivot
assemblies can be adjusted to level the decks.
Decks 1 and 3 attach to the deck cross tube by sliding pivot ball joints that can be
adjusted by setting the cam position of the deck adjustment cam.
Loosen the central bolt that goes through the ball joint.
Pull out the bushing containing the deck adjustment cam.
Position the deck adjustment cam to level the deck.
Replace the deck adjustment cam with bushing. Note that a weldment block prevents the
hex head on the deck adjustment cam from rotating.
Tighten the central bolt and check for proper level height.
