front-to-back leveling
NOTE:
Perform side-to-side leveling first.
1. Turn right side blade front to back. See Figure 25.
2. Measure the distance between the right side blade
tips (A & B, Figure 25) and the floor. The difference
between the two measurements (A & B) should be
less than 1/8” (3mm).
3. If adjustment is needed:
To raise the front blade tip (B, Figures 25 & 26), turn
the nuts (D, then C, Figure 26) in the direction indi-
cated until the correct measurement is achieved.
To lower the front blade tip (B, Figures 25 & 27), turn
the nuts (C, then D, Figure 27) in the direction indi-
cated until the correct measurement is achieved.
NOTE:
Be sure to turn the nuts on both sides the same
amount of turns.
