Side to Side
If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a side to side adjustment can be
performed. Adjust if necessary as follows:
1.
With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface, place the deck lift lever in
the second from the top notch (second highest position) and rotate both
blades so that they are perpendicular with the tractor.
2.
Measure the distance from the outside of the left blade tip to the ground
and the distance from the outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both
measurements taken should be equal. If they're not, proceed to the next
step.
3.
Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex cap screw on the left deck hanger
bracket. See Figure 21.
4.
Balance the deck by using a wrench to turn the adjustment gear (found
immediately behind the hex cap screw just loosened) clockwise/up or
counterclockwise/down. The deck is properly balanced when both blade tip
measurements taken earlier are equal.
5.
Retighten the hex cap screw on the left deck hanger bracket when proper
adjustment is achieved.
Seat Adjustment
Refer to the Assembly section of this manual for seat adjustment instructions.
Parking Brake Adjustment
WARNING
Never attempt to adjust the brakes while the engine is running. Always
disengage PTO (blade engage) lever, move shift lever into neutral position,
stop engine and remove key to prevent unintended starting.
If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when the brake pedal is completely
depressed, or if the tractor's rear wheels can roll with the parking brake applied,
the brake is in need of adjustment. Contact the nearest Sears Service Center to have
your brakes properly adjusted.
To locate the nearest Parts & Repair Service Center or to schedule service,
contact 1-888-331-4569.

Place the PTO (Blade Engage) lever in the disengaged (OFF) position and
engage the parking brake.

Lower the deck by moving the deck lift lever into the bottom notch on the
right fender.
3.

Note: Make a mental note what hole the other end of the belt-keeper rod is inserted
in for reinstallation purposes.

Avoid pinching injuries. Never place your fingers on the idler spring or
