42" Deck Blade Height
I replaced the blades on my 42" deck, and now I could SWEAR that one or both of the outer small blades is/are cutting a swath lower than the center blade.. is this possible? And am I correct in assuming that I can adjust the height by making the bolt on the top and bottom of the spindle counter (pull) the other one to correct? Lastly how does one determine the blades are all at the same height? Long straight edge? Measure from deck height? I'm mowing on the side of a hill, could it also be possible that the deck is trying to self level?
thanks

Well..........if you really want to get it right and accurate, then you will have to pull the deck off. Turn it upside down. Then take a long straight edge and do a lot of measuring from different points. The blades should have washers attached. Remove the blades and place the washers in such a fashion, that all three blades are on the same plane. Look for deck & spindle geometry to see if everything is true. Check for deck warpage. Can be a time consuming procedure.
This is assuming, that there is NO issues with your deck spindles.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
