Help with frustration first time using B2620

[Tcfake613]

I noticed from your pictures that your mower deck is one of the earliier ones since it has the regular anti-scalp wheels instead of the wider, and less adjustable rollers that Kubota is using now. I think I like your set up better than the new one, but that is perhaps why the mower slipped through the tech bulletin upgrade. Your dealer should have the bulletin.

I didn't know they made a different version of the deck. The tractor was just uncrated... Wasn't even sitting on the lot from what I understand so I'm not sure why it would be an old design.

Tech is at my house working on the deck as I type this. I'll keep everyone posted on the resolution.

I would also like to know about the 2 deck versions because my brand new 2320 has the same antiscalp wheels and the OP.

As a point of clarification, I believe my mower manual states that the 54" version of the deck has the wider different style anti-scalp wheels. I have the 60" MMM with the rotating rollers. We aren't confusing the two are we? Just a thought.

I don't have my manual on me right now so I can't reference it at this time.

Mine is also a 60" and I believe the exact same deck as yours.

You might have a very good point there since I haven't seen both a 54", and 60" together, and I believe that thee last two new decks I have seen were the 54". The rollers I've seen lately are 3" long, or so cylinders, but that might very well be just one size mmm that is set up that way.

Yep... Just verified in the manual. Page 5. 60" MMM has 4 pivoting rollers on the corners and one wide non-pivoting in front center. 54" MMM has 5 wide non-pivoting rollers.

Went out and tested the tractor deck this evening. Everything seems to be working well with the deck hold position. There is definitely no play in the adjustment knob anymore. When I get a chance to mow the entire lawn then I'll know for sure.

Thanks to Messicks for the great service!

Anyone know how to take the slop out of the knob? Mine is not as bad as you explain but it is a little loose and if i have it in the "top" position after a while of useing the loader without deck installed i notice it moves to a numbered position which then lets the deck arms drop.
