11. Turn the water off and detach the hose coupler from the
water port on your deck's surface.
NOTE: On 50" and 54" decks there are two water ports; one
on each side of the deck.

parking brake, stop the engine and remove the key
to prevent unintended starting.
Front Wheels
Each of the front wheel axles and rims is equipped with a grease
fitting. See Figure 6-4 for the location of the grease fitting on the
axles and Figure 6-5 for the location of the grease fitting on the
rims. Lubricate with a No. 2 multi-purpose grease applied with a
grease gun after every 25 hours of tractor operation.

Deck Wheels
The wheels on the deck which are spherical shaped (50" and 54"
decks have 4) are equipped with a grease fitting. Lubricate with a
No. 2 multi-purpose grease applied with a grease gun after every
25 hours of tractor operation.
Pivot Points & Linkage
Lubricate all the pivot points on the drive system, parking brake
and lift linkage at least once a season with light oil.
NOTE: It is not necessary to grease the steering pinion/sector
gear interface. Doing so will allow dirt to accumulate and can
affect steering performance.
Adjustments
WARNING!
Shut the engine off, remove the
ignition key and engage the parking brake before
making adjustments. Protect your hands by using
heavy gloves when handling the blades.
NOTE : Check the tractor's tire pressure before performing any deck
leveling adjustments. Refer to Tires on page 11 for information
regarding tire pressure.
Adjusting the Deck
Leveling the Deck (Front-To-Rear)
The front of the cutting deck is supported by a stabilizer bar that
can be adjusted to level the deck from front to rear. The front of
the deck should be between 1⁄4" and 3⁄8" lower than the rear of the
deck. Adjust if necessary as follows:
1. Park the tractor on a firm, level surface and place the deck
lift lever in the middle position and rotate the blade nearest
the discharge chute so that it is parallel with the tractor.
2. Measure the distance from the front of the blade tip to the
ground and the rear of the blade tip to the ground. The
front of the deck should be between 1⁄4" and 3⁄8" less than
the rear of deck.
Determine the approximate distance necessary for proper
adjustment and proceed, if necessary.
1. To raise the front of the deck, loosen the outer nut then
tighten (thread inward) the nut against the front hanger
bracket. See Figure 6-6. When proper adjustment is
achieved, re-tighten the outer nut to 25-30 ft.-lbs.
