Checking the Front-to-Rear Blade Slope
Check the front-to-rear blade level any time you install
the mower.
1. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage
the blade control switch.
2. Move the motion control levers outward to the
neutral position, engage the parking brake, stop the
engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts
to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. Carefully rotate the blades so they are facing front to
rear (Fig. 104).
4. Measure from the tip of the front blade to the flat
surface and the tip of the rear blade to the flat
surface (Fig. 104).
Note: If the front blade tip is not 1/16-5/16 inch (1.6-
7.9mm) lower than the rear blade tip, continue
to the “Leveling the Mower Deck” as shown in
this chapter.

Checking Side-to-Side Level
The mower blades must be level from side to side.
Check the side-to-side level any time you install the
mower deck or when you see an uneven cut on your
lawn.
1. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage
the blade control switch.
2. Move the motion control levers outward to the
neutral lock position, stop the engine, remove the
key, set the parking brake and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. Carefully rotate the blades side to side.
4. Measure between the outside cutting edges and the
flat surface (Fig. 103).
Note: If both measurements are not within 3/16 inch
(5mm), an adjustment is required; continue to
the “Leveling the Mower Deck” as shown in
this chapter.
