Deck increments.....

I agree. I was shocked how far off my mower was from the factory/dealer.

After some adjustments all is well (with in a half inch or so)

That's one reason I purchased my mower from a local dealer. They went over my mower and set the deck at the proper pitch, and made sure the height adjustment was correct before selling it. He said they set up every mower they get in from the factory.

Mine was also purchased from a local dealer...

I guess the dealer you purchased yours through just uncrates them and pulls them onto their show room floor. The one I use sets the decks, and goes over them before bringing them out to sell.
