length as other link.
• To lower front of mower loosen nut “E” on both front
links an equal number of turns.

TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING
Adjust the mower while tractor is parked on level ground or
driveway. Ensure tires are properly inflated (See the sides
of the tires for proper PSI). If tires are over or underinflated,
you will not properly adjust your mower.
SIDE-TO-SIDE ADJUSTMENT (See Figs. 16 & 17)
• Raise mower to its highest position.
• At the midpoint of both sides of mower, measure height
from bot tom edge of mower to ground. Distance “A” on
both sides of mower should be the same or within 1/4"
(6,3 mm) of each other.
• If adjustment is necessary, make adjustment on one
side of mower only.
• To raise one side of mower, tighten lift link ad just ment
nut on that side.
• To lower one side of mower, loosen lift link ad just ment
nut on that side.
NOTE: Each full turn of adjustment nut will change mower
height about 1/8" (3,1 mm).
• Recheck measurements after adjusting.
