Cutting Height Adjustment
Adjustment may be made by removing and moving axle bolts to desired position. Cutting heights will be raised as
axle bolts are moved to a lower hole and lowered as axle bolts are moved to a higher hole in the deck All axle bolts
must be assembled so that the cupped side of the washers are against the deck.
