Re: (ET) mower deck basics

How 'bout some really basic stuff? I'm asking regarding my E12M but maybe applicable to others?

1. Should the bar that the rollers are on be straight? Mine is bowed in at least 2 directions. :-)

Yes. Get new one.


2. When mowing, are the rollers supposed to be actually on the ground, or barely above it?

On ground. Drop the deck with the lift.

3. I've read about welding a piece of angle iron to the top of the deck to make it more rigid. Can you direct me to a picture of this?

First I would check to see if your deck is level. That is very important. Park on level surface and check both directions (f-back and l-r) with level. Angle iron can wait for a bit.

Thanks.
