MAINTENANCE

Check the tire pressure before adjustment of the 
mower deck. See Tire Pressures in Maintenance 

section. Faulty mower deck adjustments will cause an 
uneven mowing result.

Leveling deck
Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level 
surface. Make sure the tires are inflated to the correct 
pressure. See Technical Data / Transmission. If tires 

are under or over inflated, you cannot properly adjust 
your deck.
Four slots control the height and pitch of the mower 
deck. The deck should be adjusted slightly higher in 
the rear.
NOTE: To insure accuracy of leveling procedure, 
mower deck drive belt must be installed prior to 
leveling deck.
1.  Wear heavy gloves. Turn each outer blade tip to 

align with the deck side-to-side.

2.  Measure from the floor surface up to the bottom of 

the blade tip on the discharge side of the mower 
deck. Retain this measurement. 

3.  Move to the opposite side, check that 

measurement is the same. If adjustment is 
required, loosen the locknut and move mounting 
bolt up or down in slot until both side-to-side 
measurements are equal. Retain measurement.

4.  Turn both outer blades to align with the deck in 

front-to-rear manner. Reposition rear mounting 
bolts up or down until rear of mower deck is 
positioned level to 

1

/

8

" higher in the rear than the 

side-to-side measurement.

5.  Confirm measurements once again. Blade tips 

should be level in a side-to-side manner. In the 
rear, blade tips should be level to 

1

/

8

" higher than 

side-to-side measurement. In the front, blade 
tips should be level to 

1

/

8

" lower than side-to-side 

measurement.
NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a 
standard measurement position. Depending on 
the type of grass being mowed or environmental 
conditions, additional adjustments may be required 
to achieve the desired cut.
