To adjust anti-scalp rollers
Only some 42” deck have 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 3/4" 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.
