Disengage the PTO, move the motion control
levers to the neutral locked position and set
the paring brake.
Stop the engine, remove the ke5 and wait for
all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
Check tire pressure of all four tires. If needed,
adjust to 13 psi (90 kPa)
Lower the mower to the 3 inch (76 mm)
height-of-cut position.
Inspect the four chains. The chains need to
have tension.
If one rear chain is loose, lower (loosen) the
front support arm on the same side. Refer to
Adjusting the Front-to-Rear Mower Pitch.
If one front chain is loose, raise (tighten) the
front support arm for that chain. Refer to
Adjusting the Front-to-Rear Mower Pitch.

(Figure 71).
2. Measure the right blade at the B location, from
a level surface to the cutting edge of the blade
tip (Figure 71).
3. Record this measurement. This measurement
needs to be 3-1/8 to 3-1/4 inches.
4. Position the left blade front-to-rear (Figure 71).
5. Measure the left blade at the C location
