Never attempt to make any 

adjustments while the engine is running, except 

where specified in the operator’s manual.

NOTE: Check the tractor’s tire pressure before performing any 

deck leveling adjustments. Refer to Tires in the Service section of 

this manual for information regarding tire pressure.

The front of the cutting deck is supported by a stabilizer bar that 

can be adjusted to level the deck from front to rear. The front of 

the deck should be between ¼-inch and 3⁄8-inch lower than the 

rear of the deck. Adjust if necessary as follows:
1. 

With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface, place the 

lever for lifting the platform on the second to the top notch 

(second highest position) and rotate the blade as close to 

the discharge channel that is parallel to the tractor.

2. 

Measure the distance from the front of the blade tip to 

the ground and the rear of the blade tip to the ground. 

The first measurement taken should be between ¼” and 

3⁄8” less than the second measurement. Determine the 

approximate distance necessary for proper adjustment and 

proceed, if necessary, to the next step.

3. 

Locate the nut on the front side of the stabilizer bracket. 

See Figure 6-4. To level the deck:

• 

Tighten the lock nut to raise the front of the deck; 

• 

Loosen the lock nut to lower the front of the deck.

If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a side to side 

adjustment can be performed. Adjust if necessary as follows:

1. 

With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface, place the 

deck lift lever in the second from the top notch (second 

highest position) and rotate both blades so that they are 

perpendicular with the tractor.

2. 

Measure the distance from the outside of the left blade 

tip to the ground and the distance from the outside of the 

right blade tip to the ground. Both measurements taken 

should be equal. If they’re not, proceed to the next step.

3. 

Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex cap screw on the left 

deck hanger bracket. See Figure 6-5.

4. 

Balance the deck by using a wrench to turn the adjustment 

gear (found immediately behind the hex cap screw just 

loosened) clockwise/up or counterclockwise/down. 

The deck is properly balanced when both blade tip 

measurements taken earlier are equal.

5. 

Retighten the hex cap screw on the left deck hanger bracket 

when proper adjustment is achieved.

Refer to the Set-Up and Assembly section of this manual for seat 

adjustment instructions.

Never attempt to adjust the brakes 

while the engine is running. Always disengage PTO, 

move shift lever into neutral position, stop engine 

and remove key to prevent unintended starting.

If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when the brake 

pedal is completely depressed, or if the tractor’s rear wheels 

can roll with the parking brake applied, the brake is in need of 

adjustment. See an authorized Troybilt Service Dealer to have 

your brakes properly adjusted.
