Roller Height Adjustment
The mower’s cutting height is set by positioning
the roller assembly for each mower section.
Each section must be set at the same height to
ensure an even cut across the entire width of the
mower.
1. Place the tractor and mower on a level
surface and completely lower the mower to
the ground.
2. Shut down the tractor, place the
transmission in park, and set the parking
brake before dismounting.
3. One section at a time, place lifting device
(scissors jack or hydraulic jack) under center
of cutter housing.
4. Remove hex nuts, washers and carriage
bolts from bracket at each end of roller.
Make certain that roller bracket is free to
move once the fasteners are removed. A
stuck roller could drop unexpectedly and
cause injury.
5. Use lifting device to reposition cutter housing
to desired cutting height. Align bracket holes
with cutter housing, then reinstall hardware.
6. Lower cutter housing to the ground and
remove lifting device.
7. Set cutting height according to procedures
above for remaining two cutter sections.
Make sure that all three rollers are set at the
same height to ensure an even cut across
the entire width of the mower.
