To obtain the best cutting results, the mower housing
should be adjusted so that the front is approximately 1/8"
to 1/2" lower than the rear when the mower is in its high-
est position.
Check adjustment on right side of tractor. Measure dis tance

Adjust the mower while tractor is parked on level ground
or driveway. Make sure tires are properly inflated (See

At the midpoint of both sides of mower, measure height
from bot tom edge of mower to ground. Distance “A”
on both sides of mower should be the same or within
1/4" of each other.
• If adjustment is necessary, make adjustment on one
side of mower only.
• To raise one side of mower, tighten lift link ad just ment
nut on that side.
