BX 2200 54\" MMM Out Of Adjustment After Using FEL

Used FEL to haul 5 ton of top soil accross a beautiful plush green lawn to the garden, after I was done I took the MMM out of the top position and lowered the mower to find out the back left wheel on the deck was riding on the ground and all the others were at the 1/4" clearance that I keep them at. I set the link adjustment all the way up to get the clearance I needed but I am now out of adjustment on the left side. What caused this problem?, the dealer replaced the lift arms and the center arm that hooks to the lift arms and still have to keep the lift link adjusted all the way to the top to keep the clearance of the anti scalp wheels. The adjustment on the right side of the MMM is in the middle still leaving adjustment there but not sure what to do with the left. Can anyone help me out on this.

Give the tractor back to the dealer and let them figure out what is wrong. During use, the chassis will flex and eventually it will settle where it wants to. Then you adjust the mower deck to accommodate this final chassis position. I found that my tractor gave a superior cut when new, and after using the loader, backhoe, etc, the mower deck was no longer in proper adjustment. I can see how the front latching mechanism for the deck isn't as tight as it originally was. One of these days, I will spend the time to reset the mower deck to the original specifications, but till then, it still makes acceptable cuts of the grass. Just not as good as originally. I can live with this. My dealer suggested that I bring the machine back right before it is out of warranty and they will do all adjustments over again and make sure that everything is generally OK with the machine. I figure that at that time, he will also reset the deck.
