To adjust anti-scalp rollers

Deck has 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.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

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

1.Adjust the deck to the desired cutting height (see “TO ADJUST DECK CUTTING HEIGHT” in the operation section of this manual).

2.Using a ¾" wrench and a 9/16" wrench, remove the nut and shoulder bolt from the anti-scalp roller.

3.Lower the anti-scalp roller to the ground, and raise it up to the next highest hole.

4.Replace and tighten the nut and shoulder bolt.

5.Be sure to adjust all of the anti-scalp rollers to the same position.

6.Be sure to readjust the anti-scalp rollers if the cutting height is changed.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The anti-scalp rollers must not be used for gauge wheels or the roller and deck may be damaged.

Cleaning and Washing

Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s lifespan. Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use (after it is cooled), before the dirt sticks.

Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck. Regulary clean deck and underside of deck, avoid spraying engine and electrical components with water.

Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing.

Do not rinse hot surfaces with cold water. Let unit cool before washing.
