Setting Deck Wheels (If equipped)
NOTE: The deck wheels are an anti-scalp feature of the deck and
are not designed to support the weight of the cutting deck.
1. Move the tractor to a level surface, preferably pavement.
2. Check tire pressure, adjust, if necessary. See tire side wall for
proper tire pressure.
3. Make sure the deck is level side-to-side and properly pitched.
See the Service and Maintenance section for deck leveling
information and instructions.
4. Place deck lift lever or knob in the desired mowing height
position and lower deck.
5. Check the wheels for contact or excessive clearance with the
surface below.
NOTE: The deck wheels should have between ¼” (6.35mm) and
½” (12.7mm)clearance above the ground.
6. Remove the lock nut (a) gauge wheel (b) and shoulder screw
(c) from the deck (Figure 10).
7. Insert the shoulder screw into one of four index holes on deck
wheel bracket. Allow a 1⁄4-1⁄2” (6.35-12.7 mm)clearance
between the ground and gauge wheel.
8. Note the index hole used on previously adjusted wheel.
Repeat adjustment on opposite side to align both gauge
wheels.
