Adjusting the Blade Slope
1. Check the front-to-rear blade slope any time you
install the mower. If the front blade tip is not 1/16 –
5/16” (1.6 – 7.9mm) lower than the rear blade tip,
adjust the blade slope using the following instruction:
2. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage
the blade control switch.
3. Move the motion control levers outward to the
neutral position, engage the parking brake, stop the
engine, remove the key and wait for all moving parts
to stop before leaving the operating position.
4. Check the air pressure of all four tires. The front
tires should be at 13 psi (90kPa), and the rear tires
should be at 13 psi (90kPa). Adjust tire pressure if
necessary.
5. Check and adjust the side-to-side blade level if you
have not already done so. Refer to “Leveling the
Mower Deck” on page 5-20.
6. Set the height-of-cut lever to the 3” (76mm) position.
Place two 2-1/2” (6.35cm) thick blocks under the
rear edge of the cutting deck skirt; one on each
side of the cutting deck. Place two 2-5/16” (5.89cm)
blocks under each side of the front edge of the deck,
but not under the anti-scalp roller brackets.
