Operation The power deck lift kit is designed to work in conjunction with the original deck-lift, height-of-cut, and transport-lock mechanisms already on the mower. When the power deck lift kit is properly installed, an electric actuator provides a powered lifting feature that reduces the need to push on the manual foot lever when raising the deck to the TRANSPORT-LOCK position.
