Basic Mower Adjustments,
Maintenance, and Repairs
(Continued)
5. Make sure that the blades are positioned with
the tips of blades pointing toward front and back
of mower. On right-hand side, measure the
distance from front tip of blade to ground. Note
measurement. Repeat this process for the left-
hand side blade. Both front blade tips should
measure 3 inches, +/- 1/8 inch, from tip to
ground.
6. On the right-hand side, measure the distance
from back tip of blade to ground. Repeat this
process for the left-hand side blade. Both back
blade tips should measure 3 inches, +/- 1/8 inch
from tip to ground.
NOTE: There can be a 1/4-inch variation
between the forward pitch of the front and back
blade measurements. For example, both front
blade tips could measure 3 inches from the
ground, and both back blade tips could measure
3-1/4 inches from the ground.
7. Also, using the same methods of measuring, the
deck level can be adjusted by tightening or
loosening the nuts on the deck hanger bolts
shown below. There are a total of four deck
hanger bolts and nuts, two on each side, for
leveling.
8. If blade to ground measurements are even, but
cut is uneven, consult the Service Department
of your authorized Dixie Chopper dealer.
An uneven or lopsided cut may be caused by an out-
of-level mowing deck. If the quality of your cut is not
optimum, check for an out-of-level deck as follows:
1. Park mower on level surface.
2. Check tire pressure to make sure
they are infl ated to the proper pressure levels.
Both front tires should be infl ated to 12 psi,
and both rear tires should be infl ated to 7 psi.
3. If any tire’s pressure is not correct, correct the
pressure(s) to the appropriate pressure leve.
Make another pass with the mower to check
the evenness of cut.
4. If cut is still uneven, check levelness of blades.
Adjust deck height to the level for a 3-inch cut.
Refer to Controls and Indicators page 12.
Make sure deck height stop is turned so that the
wide side faces the rear.
Never attempt to make any
adjustments to mower deck or work under it while
mower is running. Make sure that ignition switch
is off and key removed, PTO switch is disengaged,
steering speed control levers are in neutral lock, and
parking brake is on. Failure to comply will result in
personal injury or death.
Never attempt to make any
parking brake is on. Failure to comply will result in
personal injury or death.
Do not clean the underside of the
deck with a pressure washer. Water can get in and
under seals and cause damage to equipment.
Do not clean the underside of the
Clean the underside of the deck frequently. Accumula-
tion of matter clippings seriously impairs the mower’s
ability to “lift” the grass into cutting position and dis-
charge the clippings evenly. Matted grass clogging
the underside of the mower deck is often the cause of
uneven cutting.
