ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT

WARNING

The engine must be stopped before ad- justing cutting height. Disengage the blade clutch (PTO), stop the engine, and remove the ignition key. Wait for all move- ment to stop before getting off the seat.

Cutting height is adjusted by positioning the four re- tainer hitch pins in a series of seven vertical holes on the deck support pins. Lift handles have been pro- vided on each end of the deck to assist in raising the deck while positioning the hitch pins. Cutting heights range from 1 in. (25 mm) [top holes] to 4 in. (102 mm) [bottom holes] in 1/2 in. (13 mm) incre- ments.
