Mower Deck Scalping


Pete

Recommended Posts

My mower deck on my Allis 312 is scalping, even when on the highest setting. Can anyone describe the proper procedure to adjust the deck? I don't have a manual for the deck. Thanks for helping!

Check for blades being within 1/8 inch of each other up and down,other when lining up tip to tip. Also the blade angle is adjusted by clevises in the frt. of deck, typically 1/8 to 1/4 inch higher from front to back when blades are facing forward,deck mounted to trac, preferrably on a hard surface.

I agree with dlcent, check the height of the blades in front and rear, then make sure the front is atleast 1/8" (I prefer 1/4") higher than the blade in the back.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
