Leveling the Deck (Front To Rear)
The front of the cutting deck is supported by a stabilizer bar that
can be adjusted to level the deck from front to rear. The front of
the deck should be between 1⁄4" and 3⁄8" lower than the rear of
the deck. Adjust if necessary as follows:
1. Park the tractor parked on a firm, level surface and place
the deck lift lever in the middle position.
2. Rotate the blade nearest the discharge chute so that it is
parallel with the tractor.
3. Measure the distance from the front of the blade tip to the
ground and the rear of the blade tip to the ground. The first
measurement taken should be between 1⁄4" and 3⁄8" less
than the second measurement.
