carefully rotate the blades so they are facing

front to rear (Figure 45).

9. Measure between the tip of the front blade

(Figure 45) and the tip of the rear blade to

the ﬂat surface. 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 trunion rods.

11. Rotate the yokes on the rods to change the

adjustment (Figure 46). To raise the front

of the mower, tighten the yokes (shorten the

rods). To lower the front of the mower, loosen

the yokes (lengthen the rods).

12. After adjusting both trunion rod yokes evenly,

secure the yokes with the hairpin cotters.

Check the front-to-rear level again. Continue

adjusting the yokes until the front blade tip is

1/16-5/16 inch (1.6-7.9 mm) lower than the

rear blade tip (Figure 45).

13. When the front-to-rear blade slope is correct,

tighten the jam nuts (Figure 44 and Figure 46).

14. Recheck the side-to-side level of the mower;

refer to Leveling the Mower from Side-to-Side.

15. Check the height of the anti-scalp rollers; refer
