Correcting the Mower Quality of Cut
If one deck blade cuts lower than the other, correct as

Note: Tire air pressure is critical in these pro-
cedures.
1. Disengage the PTO and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position. Disconnect the spark plug wire(s) from the
spark plug(s).
3. Check that the blades and spindle shafts are not
bent. Refer to Checking for Bent Blades.
4. Set the height-of-cut to the 3” (7.6cm) position. Refer
to Adjusting the Height-Of-Cut in Operation.
5. Perform the steps in the following procedures in
order.
1. Adjust the rear tire pressure to 12-14 psi (83-97kPa).
2. Ensure the blades are not bent. Refer to Checking
for Bent Blades.
3. Position the blades side-to-side. Measure at B and C
locations from a level surface to the cutting edge of
blade tips (Fig. 1422).
