Checking and Adjusting the Blade Level
4.
To adjust the front-to-rear pitch, loosen the front
44-inch (111.7cm) Cutting Unit
pivot plate mounting bolts slightly (Figure 44).
1.
Check side-to-side level and adjust as needed
(see “Adjusting Side-to-Side Level—All Cutting
Units” on page 4-10).
2.
Measure the length of the rod extending out the
front of the adjusting block on the sides of the
chassis (Figure 45). If the rod length is not
5/8
inch (15.875mm), remove the hairpin cotter
and washer from the end of the rod and turn the
rod until the 5/8 inch (15.875mm) dimension is
obtained. Then install the end of the rod into the
hole in the mower mount and secure in place with
the washer and hairpin cotter. Repeat this
procedure on the opposite side of the mower.

Rotate lock nuts on eyebolts to change the
adjustment. To raise the front of the mower,
tighten the eyebolt lock nuts. To lower the front of
the mower, loosen the eyebolt lock nuts.
After adjusting both eyebolt lock nuts evenly,
check the front-to-rear pitch again. Continue
adjusting until the blade pitch is within
specification.

Recheck the side-to-side level and correct if
necessary (see “Adjusting Side-to-Side Level—All
Cutting Units” on page 4-10).

Once the front-to-rear pitch and side-to-side level
are within specification, continue by checking and
adjusting the blade tracking (see “Adjusting Blade
Tracking” on page 4-14).

Move the height of cut lever (deck lift) into the "C"
notch and rotate the blades so they are facing
front to rear.
