Outstanding tutorial, Foggy. I have a 400 with a 60” mower deck that needs similar adjustments. Not easy, however, as I’m not planning on taking all those body parts off in order to get at those pesky turnbuckles . Thanks for that EZ to follow video👍
It's quite obvious your 425 has been used rather harshly. But it's nice to see what great job you did beinging back to decent condition. Very good job with both your mechanics and your video production.
I noticed on my X300 that JD does a piss poor job on setting up the machines in the factory and pre delivery. Last yr I had 1 deck wheel that was wobbly on my X300, I noticed wear in the center where the plastic wheel gets bolted. I didn’t want to buy a new one so I cut a piece of copper house plumbing pipe and used it for a spacer. It worked great.😊
Best video on the net, regarding adjusting height. Just wondering how you set the manual height adjustment. Did you put the indicator in the middle so you would have more manual adjustment after the hydraulics hit their limits, or were you at the max with the manual height? Other literature mentions the final adjustment should be manual, hence the reason for it. Please add your thoughts to these questions. Really struggling with an old rusty one that scalps, your video has been a super help.....
Don't know if anyone else mentioned it but you need to have correct tire pressures before adjusting, especially in the rear. Just sayin' .....................

Thank you this was very helpful on our current project.
Super helpful Foggy! I need to do some work on the 54" deck for my AWS 425. I know I'll have to do a full readjust like this when I put it back on.
Thier is a little spec of dust right above the hydraulic line! Thanks for the video.
