Adjusting lift lever

15 years ago

I have a Simplicity Conquest which I had mounted last winter with a 2 stage blower. When spring came we swapped the blower for the mowing deck. Since the grass has been growing so quickly I had not tried mowing with the deck down until this week. However, when I put it down, anytime I go over the slightest bump the deck pops up into the "up" position.

Anyone know how to adjust to stop this from happening?

Thanks in advance.

I think you'll need to adjust the lift spring.

ckr74 - I agree thats what needs to be done, any idea on how to do that? I was looking at it today and it was unclear to me as to how to "adjust" the spring. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I'd expect the procedure to be covered in the Conquest operator's manual.

If you don't have the manual, and you should for a tractor with the Conquest's capabilities, you might be able to download it at the Simplicity web site.

If not then where's the nearest Simplicity dealer?
