Deck Gauge Wheel Adjustment
The cutting decks are of a “floating” design. This means that they are suspended above the ground. The gauge
wheels occasionally touch the ground. They are designed to bump the deck up and over irregularities. This prevents
scalping damage to the turf and to the deck.
Adjust the gauge wheels as follows:
1. Place the mower on a smooth, flat surface and
move the deck to the desired mowing height using
the deck lift pedal.
NOTE: Check the mower’s tire pressure before
performing any deck leveling adjustments.
The recommended operating tire pressure
is:
• Approximately 10 psi for the rear tires
• Approximately 20 psi for the front tires
2. Check gauge wheels distance from the flat surface
below. The deck wheels should have between 1/4” -
1/2 “ clearance above the ground
.
3. Remove the shoulder bolt securing the ball wheel to
the index bracket.
4. Reposition the ball wheel to align with the one of the index holes that places the wheel 1/4” to 1/2” above the
ground. See Figure 7.14.
5. Secure the gauge wheel to the index bracket with the shoulder bolt.
NOTE: Both front wheels should use the same index hole and both rear wheels should use the same index
hole.
