Mower Deck Won't Move Up or Down on BX1870

[Marine63]

Good morning all,

Been running my BX1870 with the 60" mower deck for a few weeks now with no issues, but yesterday I noticed when I raise and lower my 3 point using the lever my 3 point arms and spreader bar move but my mower deck does not. Under normal circumstances they move in unison.

Any ideas that can help this old Marine out?

Thanks in advance!

Is the deck adjustment locked at TOP?

Does your deck lift once the 3pt arms are all the way up? If so, all is normal.

Is your deck on the ground or raised up?

Some one else had this problem about a month ago. Look in between the left rear wheel and the tractors frame. There is a rod with a slotted flat piece on one end that fits onto the upper lift arm of the 3 pth. His pin wasn't put onto the arm properly and washers weren't in there proper spots allowing the slotted flat spot to work itself off the pin. This arm is what lifts the mower. Hope this is your problem.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I got reassigned on other Honey-Dos the day after I posted this issue and have been busy at work since then. I will revisit my issue this Friday as I have the day off and hopefully will find the solution with all the assistance given.

Never a dull moment.
