[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 4024896, member: 32877"] @[USER=3911]jfssms[/USER] PM‘d some info on Deck level. The back of the deck should be 1/4 inch or so higher than front and needs to be level from side to side on level ground, so I got the mower out and checked the level. This mower is about 5 years old and last year they put a brand new deck on it, as the serial number had it as part of a customer satisfaction deal on it, as they had a issue with some paint issues and mine was flaking off. So I thought hey they may have not got it adjusted right. Well it was spot on! And [USER=3448]@rawhide[/USER] and [USER=3911]@jfssms[/USER] stated the air pressure in the tires needs to be the same, one of my rears was 4lbs low and one front was 5lbs low. I topped them all to 12lbs. So I had cleaned the deck the other day a put on newer blades “photos above”. What a mess I scraped. Today I got it out and mowed, pulled it in shop and jacked it up. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be. But it had a bit of build up already started packing in it. Then I installed one of the wash out connections that was suggested by [USER=42291]@Gunbuffer[/USER] and [USER=24476]@rickm[/USER] so I bought one and put it on the non chute side. Tossed a full BBQ tank on the seat to keep it running, fired it up and let it run with the water on for about 5 minutes. Pulled it back around and jacked it up once again. It was surprisingly clean! So thanks for all the suggestions and I think now I will just not miss hooking up the water to the deck. [/QUOTE]
