6.12 BLADE CUTTING HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
The blade cutting height is adjusted by actuating the deck
height switch on the instrument panel. However, if the
cutting height compared to what is shown on the cutting
height gauge (See Figure 6-12) is in question, the cutting
height should be checked. To check the cutting height, lift
the discharge chute and measure from the ground to the
cutting edge of the blade (See Figure 6-11). If the
measurement is different from what is registered on the
gauge, adjust the gauge rod to the proper setting.
