MMM wheel stuck

[Jeff F.]

I will try working on mine this weekend and see how it works. And if I feel like learning something, I will try to post some pics

Here is a side view. This is with the hydraulics all the way down and the height i mow at it's a little over 2 and a 1/2 inches. The only wheels that touch the ground are the front two pivot ones and the rear center tires.



middle wheel with hydraulics all the way down linkage not hooked up.


here's the bar that has been hitting the center wheel with the way the dealer had it installed.



What the manual says.

Can you post this view with the front linkage hooked up?

Yes linkage hooked up like the dealer had it with hydraulics all the way down.





linkage hooked up like the manual says to do it. It's at it's longest length. Notice how high it lifts only the front of the mmm.

This is how the 60" mmm on my B3200 was set up.
Hope this helps.

How high does the front of your mower lift? Also please measure the length of the front lift arm to where the nuts are positioned. It looks like my mower is set up wrong from the previous owner. I will have a busy weekend setting this up correctly

This was my previous tractor. I had the photo
and thought it might help.

Thanks. The picture does help

Based on on the last 2 pics, I think everything is as it should be. This deck is a ground contact deck and only the 2 front swivel casters and the rear middle wheels should contact the ground when lowered. The cutting height is adjusted by setting the front casters and rear middle wheels per the sticker on the deck. The front middle wheel and the one on the left rear are there as anti-scalp, and the rear one is rotated 90 degrees to help in sliding the deck out. When my deck is lowered there are only 3 contact points, the 2 front and one rear middle wheel.

If the deck can't be raised fully, I'd check the lengths of the 2 rear connecting rods, the distance between the 2 clevis hole centers should be 26.2 inches for the 60 inch deck and make sure the deck lift bracket is installed properly.
