6.2 Setting Mowing Height - Pull and Semi-Mount Type Mowers
1. Park the tractor and mower on level ground.
2. Using the hydraulic cylinder, position the mower
so the skid shoes are 1” less off the ground
than the desired final cut height. For example, if
a 3” cut is desired, raise or lower the mower
until the skid shoes are 2” off the ground. If a
hydraulic cylinder is used, stroke control
spacers can be placed on the hydraulic shaft to
maintain a set cutting height each time the
mower is raised and lowered.
3. Adjust the mower leveling rod so that the front
of the mower is approximately 3/4” lower than
the rear. For semi mount units raise or lower 3-
point lower links to set height of front of mower
3/4“lower than rear.
4. If the mower is attached to a 3-point hitch
drawbar, adjust any tractor equipped lower link
check chains, guide blocks, or sway blocks to
prevent the hitch and mower from swaying from
side to side. Never raise the 3-point lift with the
mower attached as catastrophic driveline
damage will occur.
