CARE AND MAINTENANCE
MOWER DECK LEVELING PROCEDURE:
1. Place mower on a smooth, level surface and
check tire pressures to insure correct stance.
Tires should be inflated as follows.
Front: 16 - 21 lbs
Rear: 8 - 14 lbs
2. Turn each outer blade tip to align with the
deck in a side to side manner.
3. Measure from the floor surface up to the
bottom of the blade tip on the discharge side
of the mower. Retain this measurement. Move
to the opposite side and check to see if that
measurement is the same. If adjustment is
required, turn nut on one or both of the rear
L-rods until both measurements are equal.
4. Turn each outer blade tip to align with the
deck in a front to rear manner.
5. Measure from the floor surface up to the
bottom of the blade tips at both the front and
rear of the blades. Rear of blade tips should
be to 1/8" to 1/4" higher than the front of
blade tips. If adjustment is necessary, turn
nut on front L-rod.
