Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if you guys can give me some advice, as this is my first time owning a lawn tractor.
I’ve purchased a Simplicity Baron 18hp, which i believe is an export model (I’m in the uk).
My question is around driving the tractor with the mowing deck disengaged (pulled up with the side lever).
I find that when I have the mower deck in its lowest position and I pull the disengagement lever, the deck rises slightly and the rollers raise off the ground. The problem is that the deck wobbles and moves and is generally not thy secure. I’m worried about banging it.
If I have the deck in it’s highest position and disengage, then the deck ‘locks’ nicely at a good height and doesn’t move. The problem is that the rollers are on the floor.
Is this how it should work? Ideally I would want everything ‘up’ and nice and tight so I can cruise around the yard pulling a trailer.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
John
