TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING
Adjust the mower while tractor is parked on
level ground or driveway. Make suretires are
properly inflated (See side of tire for proper
PSI). If tires are over or undefinflated, you
will not properly adjust your mower.
SIDE-TO-SIDE ADJUSTMENT
• Raise mower to its highest position.
• At the midpoint of both sides of mower,
measure height from bottom edge of
mower to ground. Distance '_' on both
sides of mower should be the same or
within 1/4" of each other.
• If adjustment is necessary, make adjust-
ment on one side of mower only.
• To raise one side of mower, tighten lift link
adjustment nut on that side.
• To lower one side of mower, loosen lift link
adjustment nut on that side.
NOTE: Each full turn of adjustment nut will
change mower height about 1/8".
• Recheck measurements after adjusting.

IMPORTANT: Deck must be level side-to
side. If the following front-to-back adjust-
ment is necessary, be sure to adjust both
front links equally so mower will stay level
side-to-side.
To obtain the best cutting results, the mower
housing should be adjusted so that the front is
approximately 1/8" to 1/2" lower than the rear
when the mower is in its highest position.
Check adjustment on right side of tractor.
Measure distance "D" directly in front and
behind the mandrel at bottom edge of mower
housing as shown.
• Before making any necessary adjust-
ments, check that both front links are equal
in length.
• If links are not equal in length, adjust one
link to same length as other link.
• To lower front of mower loosen nut "E" on
both front links an equal number of turns.
• When distance "D" is 1/8" to 1/2" lower
at front than rear, tighten nuts "F" against
trunnion on both front links.
