John Deere GM2060 Lawn Mower User Manual


 
IMPORTANT: Very low cutting heights should be avoided. Damaging shock loads
occur when the blades strike the ground repeatedly. This can cause damage to
the mower.
Cutting lower than 2” under most circumstances should be avoided.
The cutting height is adjustable from 1” to 5”.
A front anti-scalping roller is also available upon request. This accessory is particularly
helpful when cutting over uneven terrain
