MAINTENANCE

Anti-scalp Rollers

Anti-scalp rollers keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions. Do not adjust the rollers to support the deck.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Adjust anti-scalp rollers with the mower on a flat level surface.

To avoid deck damage, the anti-scalp rollers must not be adjusted to support the deck.

The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three positions:

•Upper position 1 to 2½" (25 to 63 mm) grass.

•Middle position 2½" to 4" (63 to 102 mm) grass.

•Lower position 4" to 5" (102 to 127 mm) grass.

Deck Lift Spring

When mowing 2" or lower, it may be necessary to adjust the deck lift springs. Access the springs by tilting the seat forward.

Loosen the nut to adjust the spring tension.

Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate freely.

Removal and Installation

Remove nut and caster bolt. Pull the wheel out of the fork. Install in reverse order. Tighten caster bolt. Torque to 45 ft-lbs (61 Nm), then back nut off ½ turn.

NOTE: Tire should rotate freely but axle spacers should not.

If wheels do not rotate freely take the unit to the dealer for service.
