HEIGHT OF CUT 

Cutting height for decks can be adjusted from 3/4 to 
4 in. (19-101.6 mm) in 1/2 in. (13 mm) increments. 
Actual cutting height may vary somewhat from the 
heights given depending on turf conditions and other 
factors.

NoteWhen cutting undulating areas, lower cutting 
heights may cause scalping. Adjust height 
accordingly to prevent turf damage.

To Change the Height of Cut

1. Park the tractor on a flat, level surface. Fully lower 

cutting units.  Placed blocks under deck housing 
so they are supported on all sides. 

2. Refer to the chart provided for desired cutting 

height.

 WARNING

To prevent serious injury, lower deck until
it is resting completely on the supports.
This will prevent it from accidentally
lowering while making adjustments.
Disengage all drives, engage parking
brake, stop engine and remove ignition
key.

 

CAUTION

Use proper lifting techniques when lifting or
lowering deck housing.  The deck housing
assemblies weight approximately 25kg
(55Lbs)
