No matter which way the fronts are turned...it interferes with the removal.

If not careful, the whole deck can slide away and land on the floor.

I jack the front after dropping for clearance.
I’ve no idea how old you are - or your physical capabilities here - but I flip mine from the side. Along the long axis [perpendicular to travel direction] to avoid the wheels rolling away problem. I do it in the driveway and lean it up against a retaining wall to wash the thing, or just flip it to futz with blades or the bearing turrets, which on the old craftsman that preceded the current zero turn were finest chinesium. I was replacing one or two a year.
