the PTO, stop the engine and engage the parking brake.
Rear tires must be inflated to 15 psi (1,03 bar).
2. Remove the mower deck guard.
3. Adjust the mower deck height to the 4" (10,2 cm)

deck with the 3-1/2" sides being vertical. See Figure 24.
5. Loosen the deck leveling hardware (A, Figure 25) on
both sides of the machine.
6. Inspect the deck lift rods (A, Figure 26) to see if the hex
heads (B) are contacting the pivot links (C) and that the
rear of the deck is resting on the 2 X 4's.
If the hex head is contacting the pivot link and the rear of
the deck is resting on the 2 X 4's, skip to step # 8.
If the hex head is NOT contacting the pivot link and the
rear of the deck is not resting on the 2 X 4's, loosen the
jam nut (D) and turn the hex head until contact is made.
7. Tighten the deck lift rod jam nuts (D, Figure 26).
8. Make sure that the front of the deck is resting on the 2 X
4's.
