RCK60-22BX manual needed (or setup instructions)

[jnjpream]

Can somebody hook me up with an owners manual for the 60" belly mower for my BX? Looks like it is leaning towards one side and the cut seems a bit off.. I've heard they can be a pain to get setup right, and I'd imagine not having the instrustions on how to do it would make it that much more difficult.

Thanks.
Jeff

I have done it many times, and I will monitor the thread to see if there are any questions, but I am assuming the PM will cover most of it. I do want to mention one thing: One part of the procedure has to do with measuring the blade tip distance from the ground. This is very difficult. What I like to do is put down boards of a known thickness, and drive the tractor up onto the boards to give added clearance to the concrete so I can more easily measure the blade tip clearance to the concrete.

Oops...forget to ask, anyone got an easier way to measure the blade clearance to the ground?

Go to John Deere and buy one of their gauges they work very well. This page has a picture.
