Mowing and Floating Deck Instructions
Changing the Height of Cut
Your DEK mower is equipped with an easily adjustable floating
deck which can be adjusted for cut heights of 1½” to 4½” in ½”
increments.
3. Raise or lower the deck
until the hole in the
height adjust bar (Figure
9A) aligns with the de-
sired cut height hole on
the height adjust bracket
(Figure 9B).
4. Replace the height adjust
pins into the desired cut
height holes. All 4 height
adjust pins must be set to
the same desired cut
height position.
5. Repeat the same adjust-
ment process with the
two height adjust pins /
brackets on the other
side of the mower deck.

How to Change the Cut Height
1. Park the mower and level ground and block the rear wheels to
prevent accidental rollback.
2. Raise the front end of the mower using a jack stand.
3. Using two 15/16” box end wrenches. Use one wrench to loosen
nut “A” while holding bolt “C” with the other wrench. (Figure 10)
4. Slide the blade bolt down through the mower deck and out.
5. To reinstall, reinsert the blade bolt through the cutting deck.
6. Install the blade spacers
that were removed,
back onto the blade bolt
followed by the nut and
tighten. (Figure 10)
IMPORTANT: The
amount of spacers
should always be the
same on each blade
bolt. Never put the
spacers below the
blade.
Beware of the cutting edges on the blades. The rotation of one
blade may cause the other blade(s) to rotate. Always wear work
gloves when handling blades.
CAUTION

Removing the Blades
1. Hold one side of the deck by the black handle provided
(Figure 7).
2. Using your other hand, remove the retaining clip and pin
from the two brackets on that side of the mower. (Figure 8).
