My B3030 has a 72 inch MMM. The left side. (while sitting in Tractor) is lower, actually the wheel touches the ground. The right side picks up nicely off the ground. What/where is the adjustment to raise the left side. Thank you.

On my B2620 with a 60 inch deck the MMM lift arms have adjustments....IIRC. This deck is the "floating" style.

I expected they have adjustments, trying to find where the adjustments are and how to make the up adjustment?

Where is your tractor? If you are not on a level surface, it will look like that one side is higher than the other.

Looking back I didn't ask this correctly, the deck is uneven with the deck lifted the whole way up by the hydrolic arms. The left arm needs adjusted to raise it because it touches the ground when it should be up against the tractor body.

may have pin or rod missing or broke, compare it with other side

Don't forget to check your tire air pressures also. I am not familiar with your mower set up, but there must be some linkage adjustments on it somewhere.

Found it. There is a rod running from top of MMM connector back to a plate attached to the rear arms. It has a turnbuckle. Turned the turnbuckle to the right and raised the left side. Now it's back where it belongs.


NOW. There's the question of length of travel on the elevation lever compared to deck height. The deck completely moves to ground when lever is on 9. I'd like more control over the deck travel. The rear arms start moving when the lever is at 5. Seems there is another setting I need to adjust. It's not the one in front of the seat, that controls speed of lift but not length of travel of deck/arms compared to lever. Any ideas?
