OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

DECK ROLLERS:

60" Deck

Purpose: The spring loaded deck rollers located at the front corners of the 60" mower deck are designed as an aid to limit turf scalping when mowing on uneven ground.

Height: Normal height settings as installed at the factory allows each roller to ride slightly above the turf. This setting should prove ideal under most mowing conditions.

Adjustment: Some mowing applications may require lowering of each front roller. To lower the roller, remove the pin, spring, washers and spacer P/N 9789 from the top of roller bracket tube. Remove roller bracket from tube. Slide spacer P/N 9789 on roller bracket shaft and reassemble using washer, spring and pin at the top.

Lubrication: The use of a penetrating oil or light grease on the roller bracket shafts will keep roller moving freely.
