The deck on my BX25 will not lower. I have ruled out binding by taking the pin out that links the deck to the 3 point arm. This allowed to deck to go down to 3.5 inches as set on the cut height adjustment. So I can mow at that height only and cannot raise or lower the deck.
When I try to turn the implement speed adjustment, the knob spins on the shaft. There is not enough room to put any pliers on the shaft with the knob on it. I want to try to turn it with vice grips if I can. I have had problems before with this knob being very hard to turn. I have had to us pliers on the knob to turn it, but now as I said, the knob just spins and the shaft does not move. Does anyone know how the implement speed adjustment knob can be removed?
Also I am wondering if this binding is because of something to do with the bushing of the shaft sticking or if there could be something to do with the adjusting valve inside the transmission that is binding?
