HELP on a LawnBoy model - Thanks!

If the mower does not have a blade clutch, every time you start.
Up full height, start then down to cutting height.
This prevents the height adjustments from rusting in place and makes the mower easier to start.

I am a die hard two stroke lawnboy fan from 70s on up. I have had several tecumsehs over the years, they are good engines if you treat them with respect and don't over rev them, they will throw a rod, change the oil regularly. I recall a 10 horse pull start that I put on a MTD lawntractor that originally came with a 16 horse I put the pull start on it so if the battery was dead I could still start it ran it for 16 years no issues. I recently got a lawnboy not too much different from yours 2004 model Tecumseh engine coil was bad put in new coil and it cranks first pull every time, none of my 2 strokes will do that. I think they are good machines just not quite as resilient as the original OMC lawnboy.

And while we are talking Lawn Boy can some one explain to me the logic of 4 individually adjustable wheel heights.
Is it because the decks warp ?
I just don't get it.
We went to 1 lever adjustment in 1959 on most mower although some did retain individual front & back adjustments into the 60's.

I have a spot where I raise the one wheel near the discharge chute two clicks as when the other three wheels are on the curb strip, I need that forth wheel up as it rides on the crown of the street, in order to get a nice shaped crown cut on the median.

Other than that, I cut everything at height six all the time.
