TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING
Adjust the mower while riding mower is 
parked on level ground or driveway.  Make 
sure tires are properly inflated (See side 
of tire for proper PSI).   If tires are over or 
underinflated, you will not properly adjust 
your mower.
SIDE-TO-SIDE ADJUSTMENT
•  Raise mower to its highest position.
•  Measure distance "A" from bottom edge
of mower to ground level at front corners 
of mower.
•  To raise the right side of the mower, tighten
lift link adjustment nut.
•  To lower the right side of the mower, loosen
lift link adjustment nut.
NOTE: Each full turn of adjustment nut will 
change mower height about 3/16".
