2. Park the machine on a level surface. Tilt it back to
provide good access to the bedknife, front roller, and
drive roller. Secure the machine in position so it will not
move.
3. Loosen the height adjustment lock nut on both sides.
(Fig. 4-12)
4. Raise the front roller by turning the roller height
adjusting knobs on both sides in the clockwise direction.
5. On the right hand side, install the HOC bar with the rear
of bar pressed up against the drive roller in the rear, then
hook the bolt head over the bedknife cutting edge. The
HOC bar should be perpendicular to the bedknife.

6. Lower the front roller down, evenly turning both
adjusting knobs, to the HOC bar so it comes into contact
with the HOC bar, but still allows the HOC bar to be
removed.
7. Install the HOC bar on the LH side and adjust the front
roller as necessary to come in contact with the HOC bar.
Re-check the center, RH and LH sides again to make sure
the front roller is properly adjusted and the height is set
correctly across the full width of the unit.
8. Tighten the height adjustment locknuts on both sides.
Recheck the HOC across the mower to be sure it has not
changed when tightening the height adjustment locknuts.
