I have a John Deere Sabre Lawn Tractor with a 46" mower deck. I get an uneven cut when I mow, especially when I turn the wheel. What could be causing this?

Hi,
First set tire pressure to 10psi rear and 14psi front. Cannot do anything else until you know that is correct.
Repost with 13 character serial # or decal model so I will know which hanger system you have and we will go from there.
Peace,
Clarke

Hi,
Found a way to get the two critical photos and direct quote (basically.) You can take the following link, type 2046 and take the first choice and the Operators Manual. The info is under Operating.
John Deere Ag - New Equipment: Technical Publications - Equipment Search

From Deere:
Adjusting Mower Level (Side-to-Side)
Park machine safely on a level surface. Inflate tires to the correct pressure. Adjust cutting height to middle position.
Turn blades so blade tips topoint straight sideways. Loosen top clamping nut (E) facing inside of mower, on left hand side J-bolt (F), approximately one turn. Loosen upper adjusting nut (G).Adjust lift links by turning lower adjusting nut (H) clockwise to raise left side of mower, counterclockwise to lower left side of mower. Tighten upper adjusting nut. Tighten clamping nut. Measure blade tips and adjust if necessary.
Adjusting Mower Level (Front-to-Rear)
IMPORTANT: Make sure each front draft rod is equally tensioned. The installed rods should exhibit identical amounts of movement between left and right rods. If one rod moves more freely than the other, the adjustment nut should be tightened until the movement of the assembly matches that of the other side.
Turn blades so front blade tips point straight forward. Measure from each blade tip to the surface. The front blade tip must be 6-9 mm (1/4-3/8 in.) lower than rear blade tip.
Turn nuts (B) on front draft rods (C) equally until adjustment is correct. Turn nut clockwise to raise front of mower deck or counterclockwise to lower front of mower deck. Measure blade tips again and adjust if necessary.
Peace,

I agree with Clarke, got to have perfect tire pressure before any adjustments.
