adjusting until the blade pitch is within
specification.

Measure the length of the rod extending out the
front of the adjusting block on the sides of the
chassis (Figure 45). If the rod length is not
5/8 inch (15.875mm), remove the hairpin cotter
and washer from the end of the rod and turn the
rod until the 5/8 inch (15.875mm) dimension is
obtained. Then install the end of the rod into the
hole in the mower mount and secure in place with
the washer and hairpin cotter. Repeat this
procedure on the opposite side of the mower.
