3. The difference between measurements A and
B should be no more than 1/4 inch (6 mm).

Changing the Side-to-Side

Leveling

Changing the side-to-side leveling is done by
adjusting tire pressure.
1. Change the tire pressure on both deck and
traction unit. Do this to the corresponding
side that needs adjustment.
2. Recheck the front-to-rear pitch and side to side
leveling of the cutting unit.

Matching Height of Cut

1. Check the tire pressure on both deck and
traction unit.
2. Set the height-of-cut to the 4 inch (101.6 mm)
position following the height-of-cut decal.
3. With the machine on level surface, position
one blade front-to-rear (Figure 67). Measure at
A and from level surface to the cutting edge of
the blade tips (Figure 68).

4. The measurement should be 4 inch (101.6
mm).
5. If it does not measure correctly, add air pressure
in the rear tires to raise the height-of-cut.
6. If it does not measure correctly, decrease air
pressure in rear tires to lower the height-of-cut.
7. Check the carrier frame front-to-rear pitch.
Replacing the Grass
Deector
An uncovered discharge opening could
allow the lawn mower to throw objects in
the operator's or bystander's direction and
result in serious injury. Also, contact with
the blade could occur.
Never operate the lawn mower unless you
install a cover plate, a mulch plate, or a grass
chute and catcher.
1. Remove the locknut, bolt, spring and spacer
holding the deflector to the pivot brackets
