  Theresa HernandezAug 5, 2025
  If your Jacobsen Lawn Mower decks are cutting unevenly, several factors could be at play. Start by checking if the cutting blades are worn and replace them if needed. Ensure the engine speed is at full throttle. Inspect the cutter motors for wear, checking for case drain leakage and flow in the cutting circuit. Verify that the ground speed isn't too high by setting the work speed stop. Finally, make sure the ground weight is correctly adjusted using the ground weight control valve until the proper ground weight is achieved.
