Troubleshooting

 1.  Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage 

the PTO, stop the engine and engage the parking 
brake. Rear tires must be inflated to 15 psi (1,03 
bar); front tires to 25 psi (1,72 bar).

 2.  To check the deck lift rod timing, measure and 

record the distance between the lift pivots and 
the rod pivots. Repeat for other side of unit. See 
Figure 39.

 3.  If the measurements are equal, skip to Step 5. If 

the measurements are NOT equal (greater than 
1/8” (3,17mm) difference), adjustment is required, 
continue with Step 4.

 4.  Lock the deck lift pedal in the 5” (12,7 cm) 

position. Remove the cutting height adjustment pin 
and lower the mower deck.

 5.  To ensure that the deck is in the lowest position, 

push the pedal by hand towards the rear of the 
unit and install the height adjustment pin in the 3” 
(7.6cm) position to hold in place. See Figure 40.

 6.  Block up the mower deck until all hanger chains 

are slack. See Figure 41.

 7.  Refer to Figure 42. To adjust the inner lift rod, 

loosen the jam nut on the front ball joint then 
remove the 1/2” hardware fastening the ball joint 
the the lift pivot arm. Turn the ball joint clockwise 
to shorten the distance between the rod pivots 
or counterclockwise to lengthen the distance 
between the rod pivots. Reinstall the ball joint on 
the lift pivot arm and secure with the 1/2” hardware 
previously removed. Tighten the jam nut against 
the lift rod.

 8.  Remove blocks from under the mower deck.

 9.  Remove the the cutting height adjustment pin from 

in front of the deck lift pedal arm. Lift mower deck 
and reinstall adjustment pin in desired mowing 
height.
