CARE AND MAINTENANCE
MOWER DECK LEVELING PROCEDURE (continued):
D. Turn both outer blades to align with the
deck in front-to-rear manner. Turn left rear
adjuster nut up or down until rear of mower
deck is positioned level to 1/8” higher in the
rear than the side-to-side measurement. At
this time, the mower deck will be suspended
on (3) points (both front adjusters and the
left rear adjuster). Move the right rear
adjuster and take out the slack which will be
present by turning adjuster locknut up.
E. Confirm measurements once again. Blade
tips should be level in a side-to-side manner.
In the rear, blade tips should be level to 1/8"
higher than side-to-side measurement. In
the front, blade tips should be level to 1/8"
lower than side-to-side measurement.
NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a
base measurement position. Additional
adjustment may be required to achieve
desired cut for the type of grass or
conditions being mowed.
