grasshopper 618 deck problems

[thetucks]

I just bought a 618 used. I had to lift the deck up to get it on the trailer. the problem is now I cant get it back down... any instructions would be great... thanks

Typically there is no reason for the deck not to set on the ground unless somehow it is hung up on the driveshaft.

Maybe try to put some boards on the trailer to make a more shallow incline. I had the same problem with my Toro timecutter z, but It was small enough that I could pick the deck up, and ease off the mower.
