3372

Just bought a DIXIE CHOPPER 3372 and want it to stripe as good or better than my other two which are 60's.Any thoughts as to why it isn't.Thought maybe the deck pitch may be off or the metal strip on the front of the deck needs lowering.

Did you have to change the pitch of the deck to compensate for the tire height being smaller?Everyone I've bought in the past has been shorter.
