CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DECK LEVELING AND HEIGHT ADJUSTING PROCEDURE
1. On the right side of the machine^ the tie bar between the lift arms should be
adjusted so there is 20-1/2" between clevis eyes. If adjustment is necessary,
loosen jam nuts on both ends of the bar, and turn bar by hand until 20-1/2"
dimension is achieved. Tighten jam nuts securely back against both ends of the
bar.
On the left side of the machine, the tie bar should be adjusted so the angle of
the rear lift arm matches the angle of the right rear lift arm. If adjustment is
necessary, loosen jam nuts on both ends of the bar, and turn bar by hand until
angle of the two rear lift arms match. Tighten jam nuts securely back against
both ends of bar. See Figure 1.
2. Move lift handle to mid-range and use blade height gage (8241) to check
side-to-side and front-to-rear blade heights.
3. Adjust side-to-side blade heights to within 1/8", and adjust front-to-rear blade
heights so rear of blade is 0 to 1/4" higher than front of blade.
4. If any of the deck hanger bolts hang loose, thread it further into clevis until it is
snug. Take special care not to have an effect on the deck height.
5. Tighten jam nuts up against clevis.
