4. Adjust the cutting height on the wing mower so that it cuts at the same height as the tow
vehicle mower. Adjust each corner of the wing mower so that the distance form the smooth
surface to the bottom edge of the deck is equal to the cutting height minus 5/16”. The mower
blade cutting edge is 5/16” above the lower edge of the deck.
Note:
To mow in the lower half of the cutting range, set the front caster axles in the bottom
setting and set the anti-scalp wheels in the top hole. To mow in the upper half of the
cutting range (original factory setting), set the front caster axles in the top setting and
set the anti-scalp wheels in the bottom hole.
Note:
After the cutting height has been set, be sure to tighten the pivot bolts securely to
eliminate free pivoting of the front casters or rear axles. Snug the four bolts just beyond
the height adjust bolt so the front casters and rear axles can be adjusted up and down
but cannot move from side to side.
