- Опубліковано 29 лип 2024
- BEFORE you adjust your mowing deck because your mower is cutting your grass uneven or creating a step cut, check out these quick and easy tips first.
Step cutting is when you cut the lawn and it leaves ridges on the lawn surface creating an uneven look. Uneven lawns can be caused by many things such as deck or blade damage or the need to be re-leveled. Check out this video first before you start re-leveling your mower deck (or blade housing).

you put up a lot of good useful info. being in the trade, i'm surprised it's not hurting buisness. i do my own stuff and rarely do i need to look for help but there are many out there that no doubt do. for them i thank you. i do have a problem though. i'm fixing an old john deere 185 up. i've looked around everywhere for some direction on the double pulley on the deck. the bearings are toast. i can't find a clip or pin on it. the new part clearly has a pin hole though. i've beat that thing to death, heated it up and beat it some more. it's pressed in i've read but i've also seen a hammer knock valve guides loose that the press at work wouldn't. it's rusted pretty bad but has been cleaned up. if there something i'm over looking?

The difference in mowing height due to a low tire is even more when you add in the person's weight sitting on the mower.
Also I recently installed 2 new front tires, and my front deck height went up about a half inch due to the new front tire tread.
Important to check these things!
A good dark beer is not just a drink.. Its a meal 😊👍
You got that right!
Your absolute right Steve. Tire pressure. Bent deck. Bent blades. Deck not level. All kinds of stuff play in that factor you nailed it my man.
Right on
Where have you been all my life! Just found your channel. I’ll be checking my tire pressure’s on the rider in the spring for sure. Thanks so much from a 56 year old woman who has no idea about this stuff.
You're Welcome...
Steve, I’ve watched countless experts talk about everything EXCEPT how important
tire pressure is. I’ve had trouble in the past with uneven cutting height.
You made me a believer and THANK YOU!
You're Welcome...
100 percent true. I went adjusting everything like a dummy. Bent blade and a tire that didn't want to hold air anymore.
I had the tire pressure issue on a riding mower a couple seasons ago. It really surprised me because the tires appeared equally inflated but not even close. Glad to see you've joined me (temporarily at least) on the dark side my BC buddy. Ales all the way home...
Right on
Crazy thing happened to me. I have an 20 year MTD tractor and the 4 arms that attach the deck to the frame one came free the pin came off. That side of the deck would not lower. I could only cut on the highest level. Found that the arm was pinched between the part of the frame it hangs on and the frame it self. Not sure how long it was like that but it cuts a lot better. The whole deck was off which caused suction problems as well.
What now brought me to the video is a leaking needle and seat. Tried starting it wouldn't kick over. Finally got it to but smoked like crazy. Didnt run long. Hopefully no damage. But I'm in the process of fixing the old girl. Hope shes ok. Was a hand me down from my grandfather.
Thanks for your videos. You are fantastic!
Steve, I love your channel and your videos. You have so much good information for us, it's unreal. I recently watched your video on the 10 worst comments from viewers. I can't believe people can be so rude, hateful and mean. If it was me, I'd block them from my channel and not give them another thought. They don't deserve your time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Right on Buddy...
I’m glad I watched this, I’m one of those guys who gauges all his car tires and even the tires on my big Kubota L4701,but when it comes to my 22 yr old Murray 46 inch rider or my snapper 46 inch rider I just palm -push the dang tires, i have a low pressure gauge that came w/ my Honda Rancher 4 wheeler and I will start using it before the next cut, thxs.
Right on Davey...
We have a few more reasons why people's ride on mowers cut badly in the UK as we have direct collect machines.
1) Some ride on mowers have a timing belt if they have twin blades and sometimes if the timing is slightly out they will hit each other and cut badly.
2) The blades aren't sharp enough so they don't collect the grass efficiently.
3) There are two brands of ride on mower sold in the UK, Countax and Westwood which have a sweeper collection system which is like a Agrifab towed sweeper collector but directly fitted onto the rear of the machine and PTO belt driven, if the plastic brush bristles are worn they won't collect the grass efficiently and your grass will look a mess.
You’re the best Steve ! My mower deck was bent from hitting a rock. Thank you !
You're Welcome...
"Almost Exactly" I just love this guy !!!! Steve has saved me a fortune since i have found his channel he really has .. and Steve anyone that laughs at you my friend
need to go and see a Doctor or better still a shrink ..I have also found that having several beers gives me confidence "STRIP IT DOWN HAVE A LOOK AND FIX IT"
Or go to Steve's channel and find out what to do..Without the beer I huff and I puff and just don't do it !!!!!!!!!! So the best lesson to date is have a few beers it works
wonders Well it does for me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep em coming Steve You are the lawn mower strimmer chainsaw beer MAN No doubt in my mind !!!!!!!!!
I definitely didn't think you were crazy for saying tire pressure because that was actually my first guess. Why? Because I learned the hard way a few months back. My lawn tractor was cutting unevenly, so I looked up a tutorial on how to adjust the deck on my model of lawn tractor. Once I had finished leveling it only then did I notice that one of the back tires didn't look quite right. Once it had the proper amount of air again I had to turn around and then relevel the deck back to the way it was. You live and you learn.
I just got a new 30" riding lawn mower at 70 years old. I will check the air pressure. Thanks Steve.
You're Welcome...
Informative....I knew it but would not have believed it if I didn't see it. What a difference 5 lbs. of air can make! Wow, a half an inch telegraphed to the deck.
I replaced the spindles, and installed new blades awhile back. Not such a hard job, a pain in the butt one for me. Getting too old. Started the rider and engaged the blades and low and behiold the belt broke. I thought not this time, I'd rather pay someone else to put a new one on. It also needed some electrical work done too. I had noticed the tires were a little low on pressure, so I aired them up. After mowing last week, I thought that the yard had never looked better. Never gave a thought about under inflated tires. It does make a huge difference. After watching this video, I now understand. That is the best tip I had ever seen. I watch videos for self help and have never seen anyone else cover this topic. By the way Steve, I'll stick with Miller Light. Unlike you and my two brothers, I'm a one beer man. Have a great day!
Oh my God let me just tell you I got a craftsman riding lawnmower from a friend‘s grandfather who’s only used it twice and I could not for the life of me figure out why it was cutting uneven the blades matched up and everything and I was like before I go and start taking things apart let me look on UA-cam this was the first video I went to as soon as you said tire pressure I measured the bottom sure enough it was off by over half an inch and the side that was low was low by over half the psi but I never noticed it. Now it cuts evenly thank you!
You have a new subscriber
Right on Kiya! Thank You...
First thing I said was tire pressure. Yay. The rest was learning experience. Thank you so much. My friend said fun fun fun. Because I told her I was on the bed with my two. Girl dachshunds watching a video on lawn mower repair and she was a smart alec and said fun fun fun. Yes, it is and I learn. Thanks for the lesson.
Smart alec. It's been years since I've heard that
Have fun!
I'm going to check position of the blades. See if close & level. I have another problem. 917.288523 Craftsman riding mower. Shoulder bolt keeps coming out. Ordered more, expensive! Some commented a on parts site ti put lock tight on it when repkacing. Think that will solve problem. Threads are not messed up. I move on very rugged terrain. Bouncing all over. The heavy rains last year this made trenches big and small. When started mowing this year. ROUGH! If I had tractor to fix terrain eould be FANTASTIC!!!!
That's all folks!
Thanks steve! Its small things like the tire pressure that are usually the problem i've noticed.
Very true!
Great hints and tips Steve. I watch your channel a lot. I also have the same equipment funny enough. I’m super impressed with my ridem mower. I have a Waren Blade for it 56” I have a 120 John Deere, and it handles the snow like a champ. I plow my neighbours drive and mine because they are joined. They are both very steep, but it pushes it up hill like its not even there. I put chains and weights on it, plus I sniped the treads for more grip. ( mostly for the grass, but I’m sure it helps in the snow as well) I’m in love with it. As a bonus I threw on a Aooga horn. 😂 Thanks so much for your help Steve. Love your channel.
Right on Deano...
I noticed my lawn wasn't "carpet smooth" like it was at the beginning of the season. After watching this video, I discovered the right tire was 8 psi, the left was 5 psi. I let 3 psi out of the right side and VOILA!, I'm walking on carpet again.
Thank you!
Great to hear!
Thanks Steve, just put new blades on my Husqvarna lawn mower because it was cutting uneven and it’s still cutting uneven lol. Gonna check the tire pressure etc
You are the only videos that I don’t screw with. The rest of them I love to find faults with.
Hit a piece of wood last night. Cut changed radically. Going to use your tips to check it out. Good job with the video!
Thank You...
This is straight up one of the most practical.
I will be flipping my deck over on the weekend.
Thank you
Great videos. Here is a video idea. A demo on connecting all the hoses correctly any 2stroke equipment with a primer bulb. You have several hoses to connect correctly, do it wrong and it won't start.
Already done! In my playlists...
not to mention the weight of the operator on the mower.
GREAT VIDEO STEVE.
Steve... so level headed.
Enough said... best to you and yours
Genuinely very HELPFUL video!!!
I learned the hard way about tire pressure. If the front right tire pressure is low, the right side of the deck will be low AND the left side of the deck will be higher. Yes, all manual gauges are most accurate in the center of their range and 5 psi is that one's lowest. Digital gauges might be most accurate at center scale, too. I like a round air pressure gauge with a dial and needle over the pencil kind, but having the best range for the needed pressure is important.
Cool on showing blade tips aligning, no matter if 2 or 3. Now I know to check that now because I always check tire pressure before mowing and I'm seeing uneven cuts. And I'll check both tips to both other tips in case one blade is bent on one side. Both spindles are new so it's not that, but I do hit things with the blades now and then. I know about leveling the deck and making sure all 4 tires' pressure are correct first. Glad I watched this one! Thanks, Steve.
Before I started watching the video I knew you were going to say something on air pressure. Learned that when I was young dad showed me. Happened this summer with my old Craftsman tractor. Tire was low at the beginning of summer aired it up was good for awhile. Well went to mow and it was low again. The leak got worse. Now got to air it up every time before I mow. It's almost winter so not too worried about fixing it now. 3 of the tires are original to the tractor. It's 29 years old so due for new tires. I know I could put tubes in it but I rather not. See if I run over a nail and have a tube got to buy a new tube. No tube in the tire I can plug it. That's just me.
You’re the man, Steve! I was excited to adjust the deck due to an uneven cut. But I decided to check the tire pressure first. Then I watched this and felt like, “Well if Steve says to do that first, you know you’re right!” Now I have to actually do it.
Good luck!
Steve, you and fordtechmakuloco are the only channels, that I hit the like button before I whach the video, because I know is going to be great quality as always. Thanks for being such a great teacher!
Wow, thanks!
Hey Steve I'd like to add one more thing about the spindle, the spindle shaft could be bent. This happened to me, I hit the corner of my sidewalk, bought new blades, still cut uneven, leveled the deck, still uneven, got pissed off went and bought a new riding mower, took old one to my dad, well being a machinist he specked out the spindle shaft, it was bent, $50.00 later, cut like a new machine!
Unreal, I feel so stupid, I never gave it a thought about the blade tips, dah, thanks Steve, this is why I love your videos , keep them coming and stay healthy.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
I bought a riding mower for the1st time and fixed my push mower because of your videos. My wife is happy we are saving $$$ instead of paying the shop guys and I found a new hobby...thanks man
That is awesome!
The most simple things, sometimes drive intelligent people crazy because it just can't be that easy! Great video, love the channel.
Yes! Thank you!
i went out and bought a welder to fix the rust in an old john deere deck (1st time welding btw). i'm trying to save it from the scrap pile and my old craftsman is about to give out. the deere was a feebie so i can justify some time and money on it. had it for a few years, most of that time it's been parked and on the "list". anyway brakes were bad and the thing that annoyed me more than anything was the transmission release valve. it couldn't be rolled but scooted. i spend a couple hours messing with that just so i can hopefully never use it lol.
Never thought to check the blade tips to line up, thanks for this info
You're Welcome...
Your first statement was spot on! So I listened longer and gave the tires a kick! Low and behold 5lbs down! Wasn’t thinking that during the cooler months in Ohio the Tire Pressure can drop. Thanks brother!!
You're Welcome...
Dark matter! My favourite beer along with Red Arrow Midnight Umber.
Right on
Thanks Steve I leveled the deck 5 times and then realized it was the tires.Someday I’ll send you
a highest quality New England IPA.
Right on Dougy...
Great video. I keep forgetting about tire pressure. :) I did have a bent deck. Boy, those are hard to fix.
Yes they are!
I knew about the tire pressure, but did not think about the blades. Great advice, thank you.
Glad to help
Great! I wish you lived here to fix my stuff. But you help me do my own work.
Glad to help
Ah! A smart man! Not only correct on deck levelling but, OMG, Dark Matter. What a glorious brew.
Right on Buddy...
Very good video !....In my case..the grass was uneven (lol).take care and glad to see you and your family doing ok..
I wish that beer was available in my area. Thanks for the tip, on my next trip to BC from Washington.
What a bizarre coincidence! Yesterday I was trying to contact Richard "Dean" Anderson (MacGyver) and then you pop up. You're not him are you?
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon Another gifted man with the same name, but thank-you for asking. Your programs are awesome, as I would not have done so much myself, had it not been for the mentoring or tutoring you provide! BTW, I purchased that low scale tire pressure gauge today, and it will arrive in about 10 days. God bless you!
Never thought to look at the blades like that. Thanks bud
You're Welcome...
Good tip on the psi,thanks Steve,next time the deck is remove I'll check blade alignment.You rock!
Great info! I probably wouldn't have thought to check the tire pressure as a cause. Thanks!
You're Welcome...
Steve if I ever run into ya, I owe you a case of that beer. My deck was really bad . It was dign in tearing up the lawn. I'm lookn at everything. Ohhh gee ding ding ding! Ya check the blades. The one blade was bent so bad I just had to laugh something so simple. I wish i could send a pic of it. You wouldn't believe it! You're a life saver! Thankyou!!
You're Welcome...
Low tire pressure - guilty as charged! Single, senior female that has tried to do own maintenance on my John Deere and felt pretty proud of myself too. Couldn't figure out why leveling didn't seem to help! Discussing with a friend, he asked if I had checked the tires. Do feel a little less dumb knowing others might have done same. Going to go through your other videos and see what else I have missed. Thank you!
Right on
thankyou! you have taught me so much and saved me time and money more times than i can count
You're Welcome...
Steve is always shedding light on the often overlooked details of the do-it-yourself’er. Thanks!
You're Welcome...
Amazing how just a little bit of air pressure changes deck height that much , good info , thanks
No problem 👍
Awesome I would have never thought of the tire pressure being off 🤔. Good looking out.
Glad to help
Thank you my friend. Had bought a used riding lawn mower and notice constant uneven cutting until even my wife noticed it. Saw you channel Problem Now Solved! The lawn mower had been sitting for 1 1/2 Years. didn't think to check tires!!! Thank You!
That is awesome!
Darn good tips! Got this very problem. Air is a GO. Guess I gotta go back down under again and check it out. I got the 1” strip of Mohawk going on.
I have a Wheelhorse 312-8 and could never get the cut even. New blades, new rollers and adjusted the deck best I could and still uneven, especially in turns. Steve was spot on. Check the inflation and they were off quite a bit. Got them all in spec and now my cut is dramatically improved. Thanks Steve!
That is awesome buddy! You're Welcome...
I've never owned a riding mower and I still watched 🙂
Right on Jeff....
So Right Steve....my new mower...only 4 weeks old starts scalping on one side after I pulled the deck and reinstalled it. Why is it scalping I ask self? I grabbed the manuals thinking that I must have changed the adjustment when I reinstalled the deck....but I thought that I should watch your videos first. Saw this one and thought that it must be something less obvious than tire pressure, but I will check them before wrenching on the adjustment bolts. Sure enough! three tires at 22# when they should have been at 10# and one rear at almost no pounds. Fixed the tire pressure and no worries....cuts fine (just hoping that it was not a puncture on the tire....will find out in the morning when it has sat overnight. Thanks, Steve for the great videos as advice. Great beer tips too lol.
Right on Buddy! You're Welcome...
Steve!!! You have saved me so much money on my rider! Thank you!
Great to hear!
Thank you! You solved a problem I have had for the last few seasons. Bent blades from hitting high tree roots was the cause for uneven cuts. Replaced the blades. No more uneven cuts. I am now a subscriber to your videos!
Excellent!
The tire pressure is very important, combined with body weight. That 3 1/2 inches can be less with your body weight on the tractor. Bent blades will be uneven too. I just did my blades, put new ones on.
Well I be Damn... I was wondering why my MTD riding mower was cutting 3 inches lower on the right side...I had a Flat Right Rear tire... Thanks a lot for posting this video you saved me a ton of money... Now to find a video on how to fix a MTD riding mower rear tire...
I have an MTD, too. I actually found a replacement tire and wheel at Lowe’s. The old one wouldn’t hold any air.
That was one out-freaking demonstration of the importance of ensuring your tires are properly inflated! Bravo-Zulu, amigo….we’ll done!
My pleasure!
This 2 year old video links to one that is 1 hour old?? Nice trick! I got some new rear tires for my DJ L120. They're 4 ply, not 2, 12 psi. Totally correct on the tire inflation, it's better to have a matching set that leaks about the same, only have to adjust the blade height...))
The simple things CAN make the difference.
Right on
Great tips on the deck. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
I'm Learning so much 🤗,Thank You🙋♀️
A digital pressure gauge works great
You were absolutely correct...tire pressure...thanks
Right on
Great idea , I knew tire pressure was important but didn't think about it affecting the deck that much. Thanks
You're Welcome...
Best channel ever,....cheers Steve
Thank You...
Great video Steve. Easily the most informative and best tricks
Glad you enjoyed it
My son-inlaws D125 has a lot of hours on it and the aluminum trunion had worn grooves in it and it wouldn't sit on the rod properly. I had to stomp on the mower deck to get it to settle on the rod so I could adjust the deck height accurately. Luckily it is an inexpensive part pn GX21718.
As the Guiness commercial says: "Brilliant!" Thanks Steve! You are the engineering professor extraordinaire of small engines!!!!
Wow, thanks!
I'm so glad I ran across your channel while I was surfing youtube during quarantine, you have answered so many of my questions! THANK YOU STEVE! Cheers!
You are so welcome!
A low pressure air gauge is critical to accurate tire pressure in these low pressure tires. I can not say that enough. Thanks for the tip about checking that the blades are level. I have never seen that anywhere else. Thanks!
Right on
I bought a used John Deere 42" cut a few weeks ago, mowed with it twice but didn't check the deck to see it it needed leveled, finally checked it today and it was way way off, there was 1 1/2 " difference from one side to the other. I used the three blocks of wood method, all cut to 2", lubed all moving parts associated with deck height. set cutting height to 2 1/2" and placed the blocks where they should be and adjusted as necessary. it cuts the grass a lot nicer now....blades seem to be good and not bent...I also moved the gauge wheels up a little higher. Thanks for all your videos and explaining things so well.
I forgot to say , I aired up all 4 tires to the proper inflation.
I just noticed that the rear or side hanging rods are facing the wrong way from what I have seen on other videos, the hook part of the adjustment rod is opposite of what they should be and they are at an angle. will this really matter as long as the deck can move up and down? Thanks again for all the great videos.
Great tips!!!! Correct tire pressure makes the difference..
Absolutely!
Learn something new every time I watch your videos thank you sir
My pleasure
I spent two hours trying to level my dad's deck last summer 🙃. I need to have another look after watching this. Awesome video Steve!
Good luck!
Thx,I’ve already done the leveling thing,still scalping in spots,never thought to check tire pressure!
Again thx!
Glad to help!
Thanks for the reminder on checking the tire pressure. Going to be mowing soon.
Any time!
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience.
Our pleasure!
Excellent video, thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!
With getting a level cut, if something can go wrong, it will. And it's likely overinflated tires, bent blades, wonky spindles on a rusted out deck (held together by the paint), mis-matched tires, wrong wheels on the deck, or something you've never heard of, or imagined, that could affect an even cutting height and help you turn a green lawn into a "No Grass" zone.
Thanks this answered a lot of questions for me!
Glad to hear it!
I have found a large difference in deck level as a result of driver weight. I have had to adjust tyre pressure a bit to cope with heav drivers. This has the same effect on the tyre sidewalls as tyre pressure.
Your the Man! thank you Steve
You are!
A few days ago I went out and bought a brand new Husqvarna 42 inch mower with the Briggs vtwin. Literally straight out of the box it was cutting uneven. Tried leveling the deck, still did it. Had a look underneath and where the two blades meet in the middle, there's probably a half inch difference in height. Bear in mind this machine is BRAND NEW with literally 3.9 hours it, I spoke to the Husqvarna dealer and he didn't want to know. Said as I had used it for a few hours, it's my problem now and won't take it back. I've had enough of that mower and it was never right out of the box.... He'd maybe consider taking it back for 20% less than I paid for as I had used it and he can't sell it new to another customer now. Waited 3 months for it to turn up from USA (I'm in Europe) I'm now left disappointed and gutted about a brand new machine I don't even want or like :(
Oh and checked tyre pressures as they came high from factory and the two blades in the still are not level in the middle :(
Update.... Took it back and there was clearly a 1/4 inch difference on right had blade from either bent spindle or deck. Official Husqvarna dealer refused to accept problem despite the machine having 4 hours run time. Gave me two options. Bring it back home, go through my insurance and call and an expert then take it court or lose 700 euros. I lost 700 as I couldn't be bothered with the hassle. Said it was probably my fault hitting something and the blades were fine too. I'm absolutely disgusted.
Every video is a thumbs up, Steve. You keep telling us all your secrets and you'll be out of a job!!
Thanks 👍
I absolutely love your videos I am learning so much we are videos happy to see everyone and give real video a thumbs up keep it up you're doing a great job
Thank you! Will do!
O.M.Goodness Steve!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you my good friend😁 I have been putting the air compressor on my tires, with a quick splash of air and been wondering why I have uneven cuts on my lawn. Something that simple🤦♂️
Thanks again SteveO take care buddy. Jay 👍👍
Rock on!
Great info Steve! You’re my newest best friend!! Thanks for all your work!
Wow, thanks!
Up there with G****** Stout it must be very good. Okanagan Springs OLD ENGLISH Porter is another Dark Winning beer. CHEERS from Sunny Sooke!!!
Thank you, Stevie... Columbia, TN...
