Adjusting the Mower Deck

Leveling

1.Position the mower on a level, preferably concrete, surface.

2.Check the pressure in all four tires. See “Technical Data”.

3.Rotate blades to align front to back.

4.Set the cutting height to 4".

5.Measure front blade tip, should be 4" from ground, if not turn locknut on top of front eyebolt till measurement is achieved. Check blade tip at front on opposite front blade. Adjust locknut on front eyebolt as necessary.

6.Check rear blade measurement, should be 4¼" from ground. If not, turn the locknut on the top of the rear eyebolt to achieve the measurement. Repeat procedure on opposite side.

Cutting height adjustments

1.Raise and secure the deck height lever to the transport position.

2.Position blade tip so it is straight forward.

3.Measure from the cutting edge of the blades to a flat level surface.

4.Drop and secure the lever at (for example) the 2" cutting height. Measure as above. The distance should be 2" (50 mm).

Anti-scalp rollers

Anti-scalp rollers are properly adjusted when they are just slightly off of the ground when the deck is at the desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti- scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions.

The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three positions. Upper position 1.5" to 3" (38 to 76 mm) grass. Middle position 3" to 4.5" (76 to 114 mm) grass. Lower position 4.5" to 6" (114 to 152 mm) grass.

WARNING!

Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling.
