4.2.7. MOWER DECK ADJUSTMENT (LEVELNESS)
Front to Rear Deck Pitch (48" Deck)
Before making deck leveling adjustments, check the
tire pressure. Add or release air as needed to bring
pressure to 12 P.S.I. in front and 12 P.S.I. in rear tires. If
tires are properly inflated and mowing is still uneven,
check side-to-side deck levelness first then proceed
to front to rear adjustment. Adjust front to rear deck
levelness as follows:
1. Place YARD CRUISER on a smooth level
surface.
2. Remove floor pan.
3. Rotate outside blades so tips are pointed to the
front and rear of deck. Measure the distance from
blade tips to floor. The distance should be the
same, or the rear 1/4" lower than the front. If the
rear blade tip is higher or is more than 1/4" lower
than the front, proceed to Step 4 for adjustment.
