additional 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch.

too high will affect the cutting height.

Figure 8-5
NOTE
Each swiveling caster wheel is assembled with at least
two 1/8 inch flat washers (1) along with the 1/2 inch
height-of-cut spacers (2).
1. Install two 1/8 inch flat washers (1) along with
height-of-cut spacers (2) on the rear caster wheel
yokes to lift the rear of the deck 1/4 inch.
For example, for 2 inch height-of-cut, use two 1/2
inch spacers on front casters. Use two 1/2 inch
spacers plus two 1/8 inch flat washers on rear
casters to achieve the proper rake. This will properly
set the wing decks.
