Can anyone give advice on the set up of a Samasz 1.65 Z010 drum mower? I have looked at the instructions here, but it doesn't really go into much detail.

The previous drum mower we had used to sit flat when raised in the cutting position as seen in the picture below.
However the new one tips down at the front right, it clears the ground, but doesn't look right?
We did try and raise the right hand side using the levelling lever, which did move it up, but the headstock then was no where near level.
It might me just that it is designed this way, but we have no idea.
Also, how should the 'float' be set up, we adjusted it with the the levelling lever so that it is in the middle, is this correct?
There are also 2 pins for the 3 point linkage, these have been left how it came. I assume they can be moved to alter the position of the mower on the linkage. With them set as they are, it positions the mower furthest away from the wheel.
We have used it to cut some hay and it does a lovely job, but just seems 'wrong' when lifted. Nothing snags on it and the PTO shaft doesn't foul.
Regards
