Toro Wheelhorse deck leveling issue

I have a Toro Wheelhorse 14-38 HXL Lawn Tractor Model number is 71193 serial number 7904563 Here's my dilemma:

The front of the mower deck is about 1.5" lower than the rear. I've gone through the the steps in the manual for leveling. The front adjustment bolts are tightened all the way which is the highest possible setting. There isn't a rear adjustment mechanism. I'm hoping that someone out there has encountered this problem and would be willing to share their solution. thanks for looking!

I apologize for the title of the post. I accidentally tapped post on my ipad before I was done. Can't seem to change the title when I tried to edit.

Any chance your front tires are low on air? (probably accounts for 30-40% of the mowers I work on for unlevel decks).

Mower not Cutting

M

mossman on Jul 24, 2015

I have a Troy Built 21" push mower with 6.5 HP B&S motor and it doesn't quite get the job done. It mows my Zoysia grass just fine, but if my cool season grass (other half of the yard) is more than 5 or 6 inches, I have to go over it twice, which is extremely irritating. I don't use the bag or the side discharge, so I am always mulching (grass clippings coming out from beneath). Could this have something to do with it? I'm thinking maybe there is so much grass underneath that the blade can't cut sufficiently, and if I give the clippings somewhere to go (bag or side discharge) that the mower will cut in one pass. I'm going to try it this evening, but am curious what you guys have to say.Read More

Snapper SR930 will not start

W

wainwright on Jul 30, 2015

Hello! I recently purchased two Snapper riding mowers. The one I plan to use and not scrap is the one I will be discussing SR930 model number 300914BE. After unloading it, I jumped it off with my truck and it ran fine. Pto would not engage. I parked it for the night, did some research and was told to bypass the kill switch mounted to the deck by unplugging it from the motor. I did this. I also had to put the belt back on the rear spindle as it had come off while unloading it. Tried to jump it off and it only turns now, wont start up. Checked for spark, its good. I took air filter off, the flap in the carb opens when on full throttle but doesnt close entirely when the choke is applied I poured a little gas in covered the intake for two seconds while cranking it, still nothing. The motor is a Briggs 400 cc 4 cycle. When I try and crank it some times the belt turns, some times not. The blade engage lever is not engaged though. Thanks in advance! Edit: Started immediately and motor ran fine when I initially jumped off. It ran out of gas a minute later, I put more in it started right back up.Read More
