This issue is not uncommon with the lower end Exmark and Toro residential mowers. There are only 2 adjustment points on the deck. One one the left side of the deck and one on the front center. Stupid design. Most lawn tractors have at least three adjustment points.

Most residentials only have 1 side adjusters
I can not even remember any MTD product ( Cubs excluded ) with more than 1 side adjusters
Right now I am making 3 adjusters for a Yardman which has a 4 point mounting and only 1 adjuster.
This is one of the really bad designs that moves the deck to tension the belt .
Not all that hard to convert a fixed hanger to an adjustable hanger most can be almost directly swapped over .
