MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
CUTTING HEIGHT The cutting height of your mower can be easily adjusted from 38 mm to 115 mm
(1% to 4% inches). Always shut off the engine and remove the key before
adjusting cutting height.
Be sure to adjust both the front and rear wheels
to the same cutting height to get the best
performance and cut quality.
Front Wheel Adjustment The front caster wheels are adjustable in increments of 13 mm (XZJ”) by changing
the position of the six spacers on each caster post. The following table shows the
position of the spacers for the various cutting heights.
NUMBER OF LOWER SPACERS
0
1 2 3 4 5 6
1.5" 2.0" 2.5" 3.0" 3.5" 4.0" 4.5"
To change the spacers:
1. Raise and support the front of the mower
deck.
2. Remove the pin and lower the caster post
about 6 mm (W’) until the spacer can be
removed over the flats in the caster post.
3. Position the spacers in the desired locations.
4. Raise the caster post and insert and lock the
pin.
5. Repeat the procedure on the other caster
wheel.
Do not change the location of the washers on the
caster post.
Rear Deck Adjustment The rear wheels are adjustable in 13 mm
(X1’) increments by moving the deck height
lever. Be sure that the setting for the deck
matches the setting for the caster wheels.
