Models with Single Height of Cut Adjustment Lever

A typical model with a single height of cut adjustment
lever is shown below (Figure 25).
Figure 25

Wheel Does Not Touch Ground

This may indicate that either the front or rear axle is
bent. This can be resolved by identifying and replacing
the bent axle.
An alternate fix would be to shim the affected axle.
Turn the machine over. The front axle is attached to the
mower with a bracket on each side. In this case, go to
the side where the front wheel does not touch the
ground. Remove the cap screws that secure the
bracket to the mower housing. Insert the shim between
the cap and housing and install the cap screws
(Figure 26).

Adjusting Side-to-Side Level

Loosen the engine mounting screws on the side where
the blade is low (Figure 27). Temporarily insert a
washer between the engine and mower housing and
re-measure the blade. If it is now level, remove the
engine mounting screw and re-install through the
housing, washer, and engine. Check the level after the
bolts are tight.

Adjusting Front-to-Rear Pitch

Changes in front-to-rear pitch occur only if the
front-to-rear link is bent (Figure 28) or the connections
on the ends are worn. If the connections at the ends of
the link are worn, replace them. If the pitch is still
dramatically out of specification, the front-to-rear link or
one of the axles is bent. Replace the damaged parts.
