Changing the Front-to-Rear
Pitch
Changing the front–to–rear pitch is done by removing or
adding washers to height of cut posts.
1.
Check the tire pressure on both deck and traction unit.
2.
To change the front-to-rear pitch, remove the hairpin
cotter and move an equal number of washers on front
or rear height–of–cut posts.
3.
Add washers to the height–of–cut posts to raise the
mower.
4.
Remove washers from the height–of–cut posts to lower
the mower.
5.
Check the Front–to–Rear Pitch.
Checking the Side-to-Side
Level
The height of cut needs to be checked and correct before
the side to side leveling is performed.
1.
Check the tire pressure on both deck and traction unit.
2.
Position the blades side-to-side (Fig.53 ). Measure at
A
and
B
locations (Fig. 53) from a level surface to the
cutting edge of blade tips (Fig.54).

Change the Side-to-Side Level
Changing the side–to–side leveling is done by removing
or adding washers to height of cut posts. Do this to the
corresponding side that needs adjustment.
1.
Check the tire pressure on both deck and traction unit.
2.
To change the side-to-side leveling, remove the hairpin
cotter and remove or add washers on one side only.
3.
Add washers to the height–of–cut posts to raise the
corresponding side of the mower.
4.
Remove washers from the height–of–cut posts to lower
the corresponding side of the mower.
5.
Recheck the front-to-rear pitch and side to side
leveling of the cutting unit.
Checking the Spindle
The spindle can be checked using the following
procedure. Repeat the procedure for each blade and
spindle.
1.
Check the tire pressure on both deck and traction unit.
