ALIGNING THE CUTTING DECK

4.6 ALIGNING THE CUTTING DECK
The cutting deck is lowered by a lever and is guid-
ed by a connecting rod at the front and one at the
back right. A third connecting rod at the front left
is connected to the deck by an adjuster system.
In order to get a good cut it is essential that the
cutting deck is parallel with the ground crosswise,
and slightly lower at the front.
Two adjustments can be made on the jointed sys-
tem of the cutting deck:
a) a combined adjustment to the parallel and the
minimum height front and back
b) an adjustment to the parallel across the cutting
deck alone
Check the tyre pressures. If one or more tyres have
been replaced and there are found to be differences
in diameter, do not attempt to compensate these
differences by giving different tyre pressures,
but make the adjustments as in points "A" and "B".
A) The combined adjustment to the parallel and
the minimum height front and back
Put the machine onto a flat and stable surface (such
as a work bench) and put blocks beneath the cut-
ting deck:
– at the front 26 mm (1)
– at the rear 32 mm (2)
Put the cutting height adjustment lever into the
notch at position «1» and loosen the nuts (3 – 5 – 7)
and the locknuts (4 – 6 – 8) so that the deck rests
firmly on the blocks.
Screw down the nut (3) until the front part of the
cutting deck starts to rise, then tighten the relevant
locknut (4) in order to create a fixed reference point
for the following stages.
Turn the nut (5) so that it presses on the pin (9) and
causes the rod (10) to move forward until all free
movement is eliminated and the front right of the
deck begins to rise.
