FRONT-TO-BACK ADJUSTMENT (See Figs. 28 & 29)
IMPORTANT: Deck must be level side-to-side.
To obtain the best cutting re sults, the mower blades should 

be adjusted so the front tip is 1/8" to 3/8" lower than the 

rear tip when the mower is in its highest position.

•  Raise mower to highest position.
•  Position blade so the tip is pointing straight forward. 

Measure distance (B) to the ground at front and rear 

tip of the blade.

Make sure tires are properly inflated to the PSI shown on 

tires. If tires are over or under inflated, it may affect the 

appearance of your lawn and lead you to think the mower 

is not adjusted properly.

NOTE: Each full turn of adjustment nut will change mower 

height about 3/16".
•  Test your adjustment by mowing some uncut grass 

and visually checking the appearance. Readjust, if 

necessary, until you are satisfied with the results.

•  Raise mower to its highest position.
•  At both sides of mower, position blade at side and 

measure the distance (A) from bottom edge of blade 

to the ground. The distance should be the same on 

both sides.

NOTE: Each full turn of the adjustment nut will change 

mower height about 1/8".
• 

Recheck measurements, adjust if necessary until front 

tip of blade is 1/8" to 3/8" lower than the rear tip.
