HOW TO ADJUST THE GAUGE WHEELS
The axle bolts for the gauge wheels were mounted in the LOW cut
position. To change the position of the gauge wheels, move the axle
bolts as follows.
IMPORTANT: Before you adjust the gauge wheels, you must do
the following. Make sure the mower housing is level. Make sure
the height of cut is set at the height you want for your lawn.
Mow a short distance on a flat level area and look at the area
that was cut. If the mower housing does not cut level, see the
instructions “How To Level The Mower Housing.”
WARNING: Before you make an inspection, adjust-
ment, or repair to the unit, disconnect the wire to the
spark plug. Remove the spark plug wire to prevent
the engine from starting by accident.
1. Remove the
gauge wheels
(Figure 28).
2. Mow a short distance on a flat level area to check the level of
cut and the height of cut. Look at the
height of cut position
number
on the
lift lever
(Figure 29).
3. Look at each
gauge wheel bracket.
There are 3 holes in each
bracket and a number next to each hole. The number for the
height of cut position on the
lift lever
indicates the correct hole
to use on each
gauge wheel bracket
(Figure 30).
4. Assemble the axle bolts to the
gauge wheel brackets
using
the correct hole in the bracket as indicated (Figure 30).
NOTE: If the height of cut position is changed by the lift lever,
you must move the gauge wheels to the correct hole
(Figure 30) to keep a level height of cut.
