Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): mower deck, cotter pins, select shop

Question
I have a hydrostatic yard machine riding tractor that I bought off an old neighbor.  I took the mower deck off to sharpen the blades and I tried to put the deck back on a week later and I have an extra rod hanging down and extra washers and cotter pins!  I need a diagram or pic of how it gets mounted back up.  
Thanks
Chad

Answer
Hello Chad:

You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Mower at this Site Addy, http://www.smallenginepartswarehouse.com/parts.asp  and Select Shop Online Parts and Accessories. Now Select the Model Tab. Select the OEM (MTD) and Enter the Model Numbers. Now Double Click on the Model in the Results Area. Now Select Sectional. Now Select the Section of the Mower you Wish to View. I Believe the Section to View is the Deck Lift File. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
