8. Repeat steps 5 through 7 for the opposite side
of the mower.
9. Set the height-of-cut at position
D
[3 inch
(76 mm)] and carefully rotate the blades so
they are facing front to rear (Figure 45).
10. Measure from the tip of the front blade to the
flat surface and the tip of the rear blade to the
flat surface (Figure 45). If the front blade tip
is not 1/16-5/16 inch (1.6-7.9 mm) lower than
the rear blade tip, adjust the front locknuts.

11. To adjust the front-to-rear blade slope, remove
the locknuts and then rotate the adjustment
nuts in the front of the mower (Figure 46).
12. To raise the front of the mower, tighten the
adjustment nuts. To lower the front of the
mower, loosen the adjustment nuts.
13. After adjusting both adjustment nuts evenly,
check the front-to-rear slope again. Continue
adjusting the nuts until the front blade tip is
1/16-5/16 inch (1.6-7.9 mm) lower than the
rear blade tip (Figure 46).
Note:
After adjusting the adjustment nuts,
make sure there is no slack in either support
rod (Figure 47). Tighten either one to remove
the slack (Figure 46).

14. When the front-to-rear blade slope is correct,
tighten the lock nuts and check the side-to-side
level of the mower; refer to Leveling the
Mower from Side-to-Side.
Removing the Mower
Note:
Before removing the mower, make a note
for which holes are used in the leveling brackets
(Figure 48).
1. Park the machine on a level surface and
disengage the blade control switch.
2. Move the motion control levers to the brake
position, stop the engine, remove the key, and
wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving
the operating position.
3. Lower the height-of-cut lever to the lowest
position.
4. Remove the hairpin cotter and clevis pin from
the front support rod on each side of the
mower (Figure 47).
