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.
Determine
the approximate
distance
necessary for proper
adjustment
and proceed,
if necessary.
