5. Measure engine deck height at location B (Figure 52).
6. If the height at location A and B are not the same,
change tire pressure slightly to make them the same.
Checking the Carrier Frame
Front-to-Rear Pitch
The carrier frame must have a pitch between 1/8 inch
(3 mm) to 3/8 inch (9 mm) over the length of 24 inches
(61 cm) on the carrier frame (Figure 53).
1. Measure out 24 inches (61 cm) on the carrier frame
(Figure 53).

2. 1/4-3/8 inch (6-10 mm)
pitch over 24 inch (61 cm)

3. 24 inches (61 cm)
2. Measure carrier frame height at location A

3. Measure carrier frame height at location B
(Figure 53).
4. The height at location A must be a 1/4-3/8 inch (6
mm -10 mm) lower than location B (Figure 53).
5. If the carrier frame is not correct, move caster
spacers to make it a 1/4-3/8 inch (6 -10 mm) pitch
(Figure 53). Move spacers from top or bottom to
make the correct pitch.
6. The tire pressure may also be adjusted slightly to
make a 1/4 inch (6 mm) pitch.
Checking the Carrier Frame
Side-to-Side Height
The carrier frame needs to be parallel side-to-side from
the ground.
1. Disengage the PTO and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Adjust the tire pressure in the rear tires to
specifications; refer to , page .
4. Measure carrier frame height at location A
(Figure 54).
5. Measure carrier frame height at location B
(Figure 54).
6. If the carrier frame height is not the same move
spacers from top or bottom of caster wheel, to
make it level. The tire pressure may also be adjusted
slightly to make it level.
