I have a snapper model# 7800896 w/ BS 6.75 hp and a single arm adjusts all four wheels but the deck sits really weird. If I measure from just behind the front wheels and just in front of the back wheels there is a 3/4 inch difference (rear being higher). Is this normal? When I look at it from underneath I don't see any counter-pitch in the blade to make up for this difference in deck height. Anyone else notice this? Thanks.

Might be made that way is it a convertable mulcher? having the high rear helps process grass better when mulching. Also it is always better to cut with the front lower rather than the rear

My Toro mower doesn't sit exact either rear is also higher. I know on that one there's an adjustment but I'm almost positive I've read or been told (can't remember) it will sit like that a bit.

Thx 4 the input. I swear my toro w/ independently adjustable wheels delivers a much more level cut even with a 6 y/o never sharpened blade. Maybe I'm just too damn picky.
