Hole for inserting
Saw Blade
b) Insert the Blade of the Jig Saw and carefully cut
along the contours until the piece is free from the
Universal Deck Adapter
(Figure 30). Clean the
burrs from the cut line.
c) The corners of the Universal Deck Adapter opening
where the side and bottom contours meet may
require minor adjustments for a final fit. Hold the
Universal Deck Adapter in place on your Mower
Deck and note any problem areas. Using the
marker, draw Reference Lines at the front and back
for revision. Remove the unwanted material using
the Saw or a File. It is best to cut in small amounts
and repeat to achieve the fit.
