Section 4 - ADJUSTMENTS & REPAIR 
 
DANGER 
Exercise EXTREME CAUTION when making this 
adjustment, due to close proximity of moving parts. 
 
4.1  NEUTRAL POSITION ADJUSTMENTS 
The motion control levers control the movement and 
stopping of the machine. Move the motion control levers  
to the center or neutral position to stop machine. 
IMPORTANT: Always return the motion control 
levers with hand assistance to the neutral position. If 
machine does not come to a complete stop or has any 
movement when motion control levers are moved to 
the neutral position, adjustment must be made. 
1.
 
Turn key to “OFF” position. 
2. 
Raise both wheels off the ground. Wheels should be 
high enough to rotate freely. Secure with safety blocks. 
3. 
Disconnect parking brake rod from parking brake. 
4. 
Engage parking brake lever. NOTE: Engaging parking 
brake without brake rod connected will lock motion control 
levers in center or neutral position. 
5. 
Turn key to start position and start unit. 
6.  Both wheels should not have any movement, not 
rotating. 
7.  If wheel(s) are rotating, disconnect transmission 
control rods from cross shaft and turn adjusting bolts located 
on pump(s) clockwise, or counter-clockwise, until wheel(s) 
stop rotating. See Figure 4.1 
8. 
With wheels in neutral, (not rotating) stop engine and 
readjust control rods until they fit into the cross shaft arms 
with no wheel creep. 
9. 
Reconnect park brake rod.
 
 
NOTE: The motion control levers are mounted to slotted 
brackets. The fore/aft position of each is adjustable. If 
one control is farther forward loosen the mounting 
hardware and move that control back until it lines up with 
other control lever. Tighten hardware securely. This is 
not a transmission or neutral adjustment.

4.2  MOWER DECK & COMPONENT ADJUSTMENTS 
The following mower deck and component adjustments 
and repairs can be made by the owner.  However, if 
there is difficulty in making these adjustments and 
repairs, it is recommended that these repairs be made by 
an authorized SNAPPER dealer. 
4.2.1.  MOWER DECK ADJUSTMENT (LEVELNESS) 
SIDE to SIDE and FRONT to REAR
 
Before making deck leveling adjustments, check tires 
and add or release air as needed to bring pressure to 
12 psi in drive tires. Pressure in front caster wheels 
should be 25 psi. 
If tires are properly inflated and mowing is still uneven, 
adjust deck levelness as follows: 
 
SIDE to SIDE LEVEL 
1.
 
Place machine on a smooth level surface. 
2. 
Check blade tips by rotating blades until tips are 
pointing to the sides of the deck. Check the 
measurement of outside blade tips to the ground on 
both blades. The measurement of each of the outside 
blade tips should be within 1/8” of each other. If 
measurement of the blade tips is not within 1/8”, 
adjustment should be made to the higher side of the 
deck to lower it to within the correct measurement.  
3. 
Move deck lift lever and set the mower deck to 
the highest cutting position. 
4. 
Place a wooden block under the front and rear 
edge of the mower deck. 
5. 
Move deck lift lever and set the mower deck to a 
lower cutting position until deck rests on wooden 
blocks.
