MOWER DECKS
Anti-scalp Roller Adjustment
The anti-scalp rollers are set at the factory for typical
mowing height, but can be adjusted for high or low cutting
conditions (Figure 18).
Anti-Scalp rollers are intended to prevent lawn scalping, not
to control cutting height.
For a very high cutting height, set the anti-scalp rollers in the
lowest position on the bracket.
For a very low cutting height, set the anti-scalp rollers in the
highest position on the bracket.
All anti-scalp rollers should be set at the same height.
MOWER LIFT PEDAL ADJUSTMENT
The mower lift pedal can be adjusted to decrease or
increase the amount of force required to lift the mower deck.
NOTE: Decreasing the amount of force required to lift the
mower deck will increase the mower deck’s bouncing.
Increasing the amount of force required to lift the mower
deck will decrease the mower deck’s bouncing.
IMPORTANT: Adjust the mechanical lift spring on each side
of the unit to the same length.
• Adjust the eye-bolt to increase the length of the
mechanical lift spring which will decrease the amount of
force required to lift the mower deck.
• Adjust the eye-bolt to decrease the length of the
mechanical lift spring which will increase the amount of
force required to lift the mower deck.
