Mend Craftsman 330

how can you get the deck to fully raise on a 27hp54inch egt craftsman?

I'm working on a newer craftsman mower with a 54 inch deck and when you pull the lever to raise the deck it won't bring it up on the left side. I have leveled deck to cut alright but the wheels still run on the ground on the left side and this is causing problems when I turn. It is putting to much strain on the wheels and the tractor should carry the deck when in the raised position, shouldn't it? the model number is 917.276.330 Sears says the deck is sprung but if it was sprung I believe you couldn't mow level? Any advice would be appreciated

If the deck is binding when you try to raise it, it most likely IS sprung. Check the linkage for any tight spots when it's moving.
