CUSTOM-CUT BAFFLE ADJUSTMENT6.7
The Custom-Cut Baffle is designed to deliver optimum
airflow and superior cutting performance in any type of
grass. The Custom-Cut Baffle can be raised or lowered to
precisely tailor the deck's performance for the type of grass
being cut. The baffle can be set in three (3) (early models),
or seven (7) (current production) different positions for
optimum performance.
3-POSITION CUSTOM-CUT BAFFLE
ADJUSTMENT - EARLY MODELS
A. 3" Position - (See Figure 6-9). Baffle is installed
using the top set of holes on the front baffle welded
inside the cutter deck. In this position the Velocity-Plus
cutter deck will deliver the best quality-of-cut in very
tall, wiry, tough to cut grass.
B. 3-1/2" Position - (See Figure 6-9). Baffle is installed
using the middle set of holes on the front baffle welded
inside the cutter deck. Can be used for general purpose
cutting. Placing the Custom-Cut Baffle in the 3-1/2"
position gives a good mix of cutting performance in all
types of grass.
C. 4" Position (factory setting) - (See Figure 6-9). Baffle
is installed using the bottom set of holes on the front
baffle welded inside the cutter deck. Placing the baffle
in the 4" setting will enhance fall cutting (leaf pickup)
and reduce cutter deck "blowout".
To adjust the Custom-Cut Baffle height:
Place the cutter deck in the transport position.1.

very tall, wiry or tough-to-cut grass.
B. 4" (factory setting), 4-1/4" or 4-1/2" Position - (See
Figure 6-10). For general purpose cutting. This gives
the best mix of cutting performance in all types of
grass.
C. 4-3/4" or 5-1/4" Position - (See Figure 6-10).
Placing the baffle in either the 4-3/4" or 5-1/4" setting
will enhance fall cutting (leaf pickup) and reduce cutter
deck "blowout".
