  • Publication number: 20220167554
    Abstract: A mower deck hillside adjustment system includes an angle sensor such as an inertial measurement unit mounted to the mower deck for measuring the angle of the mower deck on the roll axis. The angle from the sensor is used to command a left actuator and a right actuator to raise or lower the left side or right side of the mower deck respectively so each side of the mower deck is at the same height to compensate for tire squat and eliminate step cuts.

  • Publication number: 20220087100
    Abstract: A mower deck transport lock for a parallelogram lift linkage supporting a mower deck at any of a plurality of cutting heights where a striker plate contacts a height of cut selection knob. A transport bracket pivots into engagement with the striker plate only at a transport height above the plurality of cutting heights. A transport lock indicator is activated when the transport bracket pivots into engagement with the striker plate.
