Adjusting the Cutting Height

The cutting height of the mower deck is adjusted from 1 to 5 inches (2.54 cm to 12.7 cm) in 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) increments.

1.Stop the machine and move the motion control levers outward to the neutral locked position.

2.Disengage the PTO.

3.Raise the deck height lever to the transport position (also the 5 inch (12.7 cm) cutting height position)(Figure 10).

The deck can be raised by pulling the deck lever up and/or by pushing down on the foot operated deck lift assist lever located at the front right corner of the floor pan.

Note: When changing the cutting height positions, always come to a complete stop and disengage the PTO.

5.Move the deck height lever out of the transport position (or 5 inch (12.7 cm) cutting height) and down onto the height adjustment pin to mow at selected height.

Note: The foot operated deck lift assist lever can be used to momentarily lift the deck to clear objects. Be sure that PTO is disengaged.

Adjusting the Anti-Scalp Rollers

It is recommended to change the anti-scalp roller position when the height of cut has changed.

1.Stop the machine and move the motion control levers outward to the neutral locked position.

2.Disengage the PTO.

3.Engage the park brake.

4.Stop the engine, remove the key and wait for all moving parts to stop.

5.After adjusting the height of cut, adjust the anti-scalp rollers by removing the bolt and spring disc washer.

6.Place the rollers in one of the positions shown (Figure 11). Rollers will maintain 3/4 inch (19 mm) clearance to the ground to minimize gouging and roller wear or damage.

Figure 11

For cutting heights above 4.0 inches (102 mm) use the bottom hole. The rollers will still be effective against scalping.
