process. Otherwise, spring pressure from the deck lift springs will
tend to pull the stop away from the handle.
6. Loosen all nuts on the deck lift threaded rods, and the hardware on
the adjuster (on the right front), until all the deck lift chains are
loose, and the deck is sitting tightly on all four blocks. Fig. 11-35,

25. Tighten the appropriate nut until the chain just becomes tight.
26. Tighten the other nut on the opposite side of the block, and jam them
tightly together against the block.

between the front nut and on the spring and the rear nut on the deck
lift block (Fig. 11-39). Typical both sides.
