Level Cutter Decks

Make adjustments with cutter hooked to the tractor
operating it or to one with the same drawbar height.

Level Center Deck

Refer to Figure 2-2:
1.
Attach cutter to tractor and park on level ground.
2. Raise both wings fully up with tractor hydraulics.
3. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting. Refer
to "Tractor Shutdown Procedure" on page 17.
4. Lock wings folded up with transport locks (#3) and
hairpin cotters (#1) as shown. See "Transport
Locks" on page 33 for detailed instructions.
Refer to Figure 2-3:
5. With tractor hydraulics, adjust center deck until front
skids (#7) are 2 to 3 inches above ground.
6. Without changing deck height, shut tractor down
properly before dismounting.
7.
On both sides of the center deck are continuous
hinges (#2). Measure the height they are off the
ground as follows:
a. Refer to Figure 2-2: At back of cutter, measure
distance from bottom of right hinge (#2) to ground
and from bottom of left hinge to ground. These
two measurements should be equal.
b. Refer to Figure 2-3: At front of cutter, measure
distance from bottom of right hinge (#2) to ground
and from bottom of left hinge to ground. These two
measurements should be 1" less than the rear
measurements taken in step a.
Refer to Figure 2-2 on page 28:
8. Adjust length of leveling rods at coupler nuts (#6) if
continuous hinges are not 1" lower at the front:

NOTE: Unscrewing coupler nuts (#6) will lengthen
leveling rods and lower front of cutter. Tightening
coupler nuts (#6) will shorten leveling rods and raise
front of cutter.
If continuous hinges are too high at the front:
a. Loosen jam nuts (#5).
b. Unscrew coupler nuts (#6) an equal amount to
lower front of cutter until both hinges are inclined
from front to back by 1" with the front being closer
to the ground than the back.
If continuous hinges are too low at the front:
a. Loosen jam nuts (#5) several turns.
b. Tighten coupler nuts (#6) an equal amount to
raise front of cutter until both hinges are inclined
from front to back by 1" with the front being closer
to the ground than the back.
9. Be sure the leveling rods have equal amounts of
tension and then re-tighten jam nuts (#5) against
39093
coupler nuts (#6).
