We just had one in the shop about 2 weeks ago to install a new belt but we never tried setting it up on a tractor to actually mow with it. I'll try to reach the customer and ask him what he does to set it up and how well it cuts.

Hi Starcraft 150,  Is this a three point mower deck, and does it sit on four caster wheels?  I run a 72" Woods finish mower on 3 point on my main mowing tractor, and it's easy to sit up.  It sits on 4 wheels, sits or floats, which ever you want to call it.  If it sits on just 2 caster wheels and three point arms, then you'll need to level the lift arms also.  Good Luck.

Rob do you have the two chains that go from the front of the deck to the Tractor frame?  You adjust them so that when the 3 pt is down the front of the mower deck is slightly lower than the rear .  ( I use a level to check).  Side to side you need to check the 3 pt.and the caster wheels.

 

Also look under the deck are the blade tips all the same distance from the ground? (some one may have added or deleted a washer or a blade is bent.
