    Adjust Mower Deck of Snapper Rear Engine Rider
    I need to raise the mower deck of my Snapper rear engine rider. It has a single blade with 30-inch cutting width. Currently, when lever is in upper-most position (#6) the blade still scalps portions of my lawn. I have looked through some online manuals but they are a bit confusing. Help please! -mw
