Hi Fellas,
My '75 212 is equipped with the optional electric lift used to lift the rotary mower deck. It works great - BUT, it won't stay put.
As you may know, the height adjustment is controlled via a knurled knob located on the left side of the tower, just forward of the lift lever. Well, I adjust the deck height fairly high on the scale of 1-7, about a 6 (which produces about a 3.5" cut), but then within 2-3 minutes of mowing, the adjustment will dial itself down the scale to a 5, which produces a cut shorter than I prefer. So I have to keep stopping and check the scale and adjust it back up.
Does anyone have an idea or suggestion as to how to stop the adjusting knob from turning itself down ?
