Leveling the deck must be done in the following manner and order:

Drive wheels tire pressure...........8 - 12 psi
Gauge wheels tire pressure.........8 - 12 psi
WARNING: Stop engine. Make sure deck clutch switch is in the down (OFF) position. Place control
levers in the brake position before leaving machine.
