5.
To lower the front of the deck, loosen the outer nut then loosen (thread
outward) the nut, away from the front hanger bracket. See Figure 23. When
proper adjustment is achieved, re-tighten the outer nut.
Leveling the Deck (Side-to-Side)
If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a side to side adjustment can be
performed. Adjust if necessary as follows:
1.
With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface, place the deck lift lever in
the middle position and rotate both blades so that they are perpendicular
with the tractor.
2.
Measure the distance from the outside of the left blade tip to the ground
and the distance from the outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both
measurements taken should be equal. If they're not, proceed to the next
step.
3.
Under the rear fenders inside the wheels there is a lift adjustment rod for
each side of the deck. See Figure 24.
4.
Minor side-to-side adjustments should be made using primarily the left
adjustment rod.
5.
To raise the left side of the deck, loosen the upper nut on the end of the
lift rod, then turn the lower nut clockwise. When the proper adjustment is
achieved, tighten the upper nut to secure in place. To lower the left side of
the deck, loosen the upper nut on the end of the lift rod, then turn the lower
nut counterclockwise. When the proper adjustment is achieved, tighten the
upper nut to 25-30 ft-lbs. to secure in place.
6.
The deck is properly leveled when both blade tip measurements taken earlier
are equal.
Adjusting the Deck Height
The height of the deck can be adjusted to ensure that the setting on your deck
height lever is accurate. To adjust the deck height proceed as follows:
1.
Park the tractor on a firm, level surface and place the deck lift lever in the
highest position(4") and rotate the blade nearest the discharge chute so that
it is perpendicular with the tractor.
2.
Measure the distance from the outside of the left blade tip to the ground
and the distance from the outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both
measurements taken should be 4". If they're not, proceed to the next step.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

3.
Using the right and left lift rods, raise or lower the necessary side of the deck
until both sides are measured at 4" from the pavement.
Adjusting the Deck Wheels
Keep hands and feet away from the discharge opening of the cutting deck.
NOTE: The deck wheels are an anti-scalp feature of the deck and are not designed to
support the weight of the cutting deck.
The deck wheels should be approximately 1⁄ 4 -1⁄2" above the ground when the deck
is set in the desired height setting. To adjust the deck wheels see the Assembly &
Set-Up section for instructions.
Seat Adjustment
Refer to the Assembly & Set-Up section of this manual for seat adjustment instructions.
Before operating the tractor, make sure the seat is engaged in the seat-
stop. Engage the parking brake. Stand behind the machine and pull back
on seat until it clicks into place.
Parking Brake Adjustment
If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when the brake pedal is completely
depressed, or if the tractor's rear wheels can roll with the parking brake applied
(and the hydrostatic relief valve open), the brake is in need of adjustment. See your
authorized service dealer to have the brake adjusted.
Wheel Alignment
If your tractor pulls to one side or is out of alignment, a wheel alignment might
be necessary. Take your tractor to an authorized service dealer to have the wheels
properly aligned.
