A.3" Position - baffle is installed using the top set of holes on the front baffle welded inside the cutter deck. (See Figure 15). The Advantage cutter deck will deliver the best quality-of-cut in very tall, wiry, tough to cut grass.

B.3-1/2" Position (factory setting) - baffle is installed using the middle set of holes on the front baffle welded inside the cutter deck. (See Figure 16). For general purpose cutting, place the Custom Cut Baffle in the 3-1/2" position. This gives the best mix of cutting performance in all types of grass.

C.4" Position - baffle is installed using the bottom set of holes on the front baffle welded inside the cutter deck . (See Figure 17). Placing the baffle in the 4" setting will enhance fall cutting (leaf pickup) and reduce cutter deck "blowout".

To adjust the Custom-Cut Baffle height:

1.Place the cutter deck in the transport position.

2.Remove the hardware securing the Custom-Cut Baffle to the cutter deck. (See Figure 14).
