Answer
Hi Char,

Sorry, I don't know how the linkage is supposed to go without seeing it.  All I can say is to look carefully at the connection points noting the areas of wear.  Then connect the rods in those holes.  You might also be able to look at a similar mower at a dealer or repair shop.

Let me know how you make out.
