Deck Height Index
The deck height index consists of several holes located on the
front/right of the foot platform. Each hole corresponds to a 1⁄4”
change in the deck height position ranging from 1 ” at the lowest
notch to 5” at the highest notch.
Cup Holder
The cup holder is located toward the rear of the LH console to
the left of the operator’s seat.
Power Implement Lift
The power implement lift is located on the LH console to the left
of the operator’s seat, and is used to raise and lower the mower
deck.
To raise the mowing deck to the transport position, place the
clevis pin on the deck height index in the furthest hole from
you and secure with the cotter pin and then use the power
implement lift. To lower the deck, remove the clevis pin and
reinsert it in the desired cutting height and secure with cotter pin
and then use the power implement lift.
Seat Adjustment Levers (Not Shown)
