maintenance Adjusting the Mower Deck Leveling Deck Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level surface. Make sure the tires are inflated to the correct pressure. See Tire Pressures in Maintenance section. If tires are under or over inflated, the deck cannot be properly adjusted. Faulty mower deck adjustments will cause an uneven mowing result. Four bolts control the height and pitch of the mower deck. The deck should be adjusted slightly higher in the rear. NOTE: To insure accuracy of leveling procedure, mower deck drive belt must be installed prior to leveling the deck. 1. Wear heavy gloves. Turn each outer blade tip to align the deck in a side-to-side manner. 2. Measure from the floor surface up to the bottom of the blade tip on the discharge side of the mower deck. Record this measurement. Move to the opposite side; check that measurement is the same. If adjustment is required, use the nuts to adjust the right and left side eyebolts up or down until both side-to-side measurements are equal. Record measurement. 3. Turn both outer blades to align with the deck in front-to-rear manner. Reposition rear mounting eyebolts up or down until rear blade tips are positioned 1/8" to 3/8" higher in the rear than the front blade tips. 4. Confirm measurements once again. The blade tip height should be equal side-to-side. In the rear, blade tips should be 1/8" to 3/8" higher than the front measurement. In the front, blade tips should be equal from side-to-side. NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a standard measurement position. Additional adjustment may be required to achieve desired cut for the type of grass or conditions being mowed. WARNING! Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling. 1 Align blades side-to-side to begin measurements 8065-093 Level the mower deck 8065-100 43
