Cutting Height Adjustment
The cutting height adjustment pin (A, Figure 36) controls the
mower cutting height. The cutting height is adjustable
between 1-1/2” (3,8 cm) and 4-1/2” (11,4cm). Pulling the
lever back fully locks the control in transport position.
To adjust cutting height:
1. Pull the adjustment lever (B) back fully until it locks in
transport position.
2. Remove the cutting height adjustment pin (A) and insert
it into the desired hole.
3. Pull back on the adjustment lever (B), squeeze the
smaller transport release lever (C), and allow the lever to
move forward until it is supported by the cutting height
adjustment pin (A).
Neutral Adjustment
If the unit creeps forward or backward with the control levers
in their neutral positions, contact Snapper at 1-800-317-
7833.
Speed Balancing Adjustment
If the rider veers to the right or left when the ground speed /
steering control levers are in the maximum forward or
reverse position, the top speed of each of these levers can be
balanced by turning the adjustment bolt(s) (A & C Figure
35). Only reduce the speed of the wheel that is traveling
faster.
TO REDUCE THE SPEED OF THE FASTER WHEEL
1. Loosen the jam nut securing the top speed adjustment
bolt (A, C).
2. Turn the top speed adjustment bolt COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE to reduce the speed.
3. Retighten the securing nut when adjustment is complete.
WARNING
DO NOT adjust the rider for a faster overall speed
forward or reverse than it was designed for.
