Video Tutorial on leveling out your lawn mower deck for a nice even lawn cut. Very simple job if you have a flat surface to work on. I'm working on a Husqvarna but this will be similar on many other brands too... just check your owners manual for the variances.

My Husqvarna manual says the front should be 3/8" lower than the back. Also says to measure off the blade cutting edges, not the deck sides.

What happens if you go one or two heights lower on the deck to cut the grass a little shorter? Does you anti-scalp wheel then ride no the ground?
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 Год назад
They're supposed to yes.. I think you can adjust the height of the wheels.

I need to raise my deck up more but no matter how much I turn those nuts or whatever, it never seems to rise. I mow on a 6 (which is suppose to be 4 inches) but it looks more like 2.5). What else can I do? The little wheels are already at the lowest point to raise the deck up the highest of that makes sense.
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 Год назад
Without being able to see the whole situation, I'm not sure what to advise on that one. Seems like it should definitely be higher than 2.5...

Same issue! Need to cut at 4" but 6 is 2.5. Adjustments at max. No help from Husqvarna! Keep sending videos on how to level deck. Only way I see is buy taller very high priced tires! Never ever buy a Husqvarna, no support!

Can you go down to the lowest setting and not have the handle fight you? This RZ5424 isn't right even after getting a new deck replacement. The front of the deck is up much higher than the rear deck, which is totally opposite.
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 Месяц назад
HI,... Usually the wheels on the deck will engage before you can get to the actual lowest setting on the handle. But yea I would maybe try to adjust it so the front is slightly lower than the rear. Honestly I don't know if it'll make much difference in the way it cuts, but that's what they recommend.

What position is the deck height setting in when you do this(1,2,3,4,5 or 6). I am having a problem with my deck scraping when driving it on a new trailer i just bought. I think it is out of adjustment. Also, when i put it in the 1 position, i almost have to force it, which makes me believe the deck is to low and needs to be adjusted so that in the 1 position should be not forced down and the blade should be 1in of the grass.......instructions never said what position what to have the lever adjustment in while making these adjustments
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 4 года назад
No it's a very common problem for decks to get hung up on the trailer ramps. I've seen this happen with multiple mowers and multiple different trailers. I usually just raise the deck all the way up and cross my fingers... but you can raise the trailer ramp with some blocks and maybe use a secondary ramp to get up to the trailer ramp using a shorter 2x10 or something like that... It's really a pain no matter how you slice it. if it's a single wheel trailer, try raising your hitch as high as you can get it... that'll lower the back of the trailer. Actually the deck may be adjusted to high.. that's why you're forcing it to go into the highest position.. it should probably be lowered down slightly to make it easier to go to the 1 position.

I think you set your anti-scalping wheels tool low. The wheels should ride about a quarter of an inch below the deck. Take the rear and front up one hole and you should be fine.
@JLPicard440

I set them according to the book... They seem to work pretty good at that height.

I used a set of mower ramps like you use to drive onto a pickup truck. I will usually use a wench that's connected to the table at the far end to pull it up. I don't like driving the mower up while riding it.

angled up to far in the front?
@brandonsmith8548
@brandonsmith8548 3 года назад
I measured the front and back. Front is lower than the back! When I measured the front ends they were pretty even! I'm just not sure where it's supposed to sit. This old toro has 2 bars on the front deck 2 bars in the back, and then a clevis pin on each side with holes for the adjustment. So I took those and lowered the back and I'll mow tomorrow and see if that did anything at all. Not many videos for my old toro. Actually zero!
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 3 года назад
I hope that helps. If I remember right, the front is supposed to be a little lower than the back. But you might play with the adjustments a little to see if anything makes a difference..

HI. I can't see the deck. You'll have to get someone to operate the lever up and down while you look and see what it's hitting. It's hitting something now because something could have gotten bent.

Something ain't right on this design! Husqvarna needs to get involved. Relative has somewhat similar Husqvarna mower and on 6 it barely touches the grass at 4".
@JLPicard440
@JLPicard440 4 месяца назад
I have a feeling the number on the deck adjustment is just a relative number and doesn't correspond to actual inches... It's a reference for higher or lower... Of course I've never actually measured it to see if that's true or not.
