Changing the Side-to-Side
Leveling
Changing the side–to–side leveling is done by adjusting
tire pressure.
Changing the Side–to–Side Leveling with
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 (Fig. 57). Measure at A and from level
surface to the cutting edge of the blade tips (Fig. 58).
4. The measurement should be 4 inch (101.6 mm).

5. If it does not measure correctly, add air pressure in rear
tires to raise height–of–cut
6. If it does not measure correctly, decrease air pressure
in rear tires to lower height–of–cut.
7. Check carrier frame front–to–rear pitch.
Replacing the Traction Drive
Belt
Service Interval/Specification
Check all belts after every 50 operating hours or monthly,
whichever occurs first. Look for cracks, wear, and signs of
overheating.
1. Remove belt guard, not shown for clarity.
2. Remove the top capscrew securing idler support and
idler bracket to rear frame (Fig. 59).
3. Loosen bottom two mounting screws enough to allow
belt to pass between drive pulley and idler support
(Fig. 59).
4. Raise the wheel off the ground, to allow the belt to be
removed, and remove the belt.
5. Install a new belt.
6. Install the top capscrew securing the idler support and
idler bracket to the rear frame (Fig. 59).
