Leveling the mower deck
Check the tire pressure before adjustment of the
mower deck. See
Tire Pressure in Maintenance
section. Faulty mower deck adjustments will cause an
uneven mowing result.
Leveling
Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level
surface. Make sure the tires are inflated to the correct
pressure. See
Technical Data under Transmission .
If tires are under or over inflated, the deck cannot be
properly adjusted.
Four slots control the height and pitch of the mower
deck. The deck should be adjusted slightly higher in
the rear.
NOTE:To insure accuracy of leveling procedure,
mower deck drive belt must be installed prior to
leveling the deck.
1. Wear heavy gloves. Turn each outer blade tip to
align with the deck or in a side-to-side manner.
2. Measure from the floor surface up to the bottom
of the blade tip on the discharge side of the
mower deck. Retain this measurement. Move to
the opposite side, check that measurement is the
same. If adjustment is required, loosen the locknut
and move mounting bolt up or down in slot until
both side-to-side measurements are equal. Retain
measurement.
3. Turn both outer blades to align with the deck in
front-to-rear manner. Reposition rear mounting
bolts up or down until rear of mower deck is
positioned level to
1
/

" higher in the rear than the
side-to-side measurement.
NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a standard
measurement position. Depending on the type of
grass being mowed or environmental conditions,
additional adjustments may be required to achieve the
desired cut.
WARNING!
Blades are sharp. Protect your hands
with gloves and/or wrap blades with a
heavy cloth when handling.
