Raise a tape measure off the ground and measure the front on both sides, making sure both sides are the same distance off the ground before adjusting.
The front should be an inch and a half to two inches lower than the back so cut material can clear out instead of getting mulched up.
So most of the weight rests on the wheel, helping the mower ride smoother and float better over obstacles like mounds instead of banging around.
