Checking and Adjusting the Blade Level
Adjusting Side-to-Side LeveliAII Cutting Units
Measure from the blade tip to the ground on each side.
On single blade mowers use the same blade tip for
both measurements (Figure 35). On multiple blade
models, choose a tip on each blade and mark it so you
can refer back to the same one (Figure 36 and
Figure 37).

If there is more than a 3/16 inch (4.5mm) difference
side to side, adjustment is necessary. Remove the
hairpin cotter and washer from the leveling bracket
(Figure 38). To level the blade(s), reposition the
leveling bracket(s) in a different hole and install the
washer and hairpin cotter. Moving to a hole nearer the
front lowers the blade height. Moving to a hole nearer
to the rear raises the height. There are identical
brackets on both sides. Use the holes in both to level
the blades side to side. The brackets do not need to be
in the same hole on both sides.
