B should be no more than 1/4 inc h (6 mm).
Changing the Side-to-Side
Leveling
Changing the side-to-side lev eling is done b y
adjusting tire pressure .
1. Chang e the tire pressure on both dec k and
traction unit. Do this to the cor responding
side that needs adjustment.
2. R ec hec k the front-to-rear pitc h and side to side
lev eling of the cutting unit.
Matching Height of Cut
1. Chec k the tire pressure on both dec k and
traction unit.
2. Set the height-of-cut to the 4 inc h (101.6 mm)
position follo wing the height-of-cut decal.
3. With the mac hine on lev el surface , position
one blade front-to-rear ( Figure 67 ). Measure at
A and from lev el surface to the cutting edg e of
the blade tips ( Figure 68 ).

4. T he measurement should be 4 inc h (101.6
mm).
5. If it does not measure cor rectly , add air pressure
in the rear tires to raise the height-of-cut.
6. If it does not measure cor rectly , decrease air
pressure in rear tires to lo w er the height-of-cut.
7. Chec k the car rier frame front-to-rear pitc h.
