I have a '98 Murray with a 46" cut, I adjust the deck as per the instructions (gauge wheels off, lift lever all the way down, etc.). When I first bought the mower I used setting #3, after my initial adjustment I had to use setting #4, I'm now at #6, but it does cut level. I decided to loosen the adjusting nuts then just lift up the deck and retighten the nuts. To an extent that worked, but that made the deck too low in the front. I could find no adjustment on the lift handle or for the front, only the linkage at the adjusting wing nuts. Is it possible I have damaged linkage (worn or bent) or what have I failed to do when leveling? My neighbor claimed he leveled with the gauge wheels on and the setting at #3 and was going to show me. Alas, he died on me.
