EQUIPMENT:
CUTTING HEIGHT:
1. Before changing cutting heights make sure the
blades are off, key switch is off, and remove
spark plug wire or wires.
2. Cutting height ranges from 1 1/2” to 5” in 1/4”
increments. Factory setting is 3”.
3. Cutting height can be changed three ways.
Move one “C” spacer on the front casters,
change the blade spacers, or change rear deck
position.
4.
a. To change heights on the rear deck loosen,
but do not remove the middle bolt on each
side of the rear deck, and the two bolts on the
front side of the rear deck. See Figure 1.
NOTE: To achieve the best quality cut, the
blades should be level with the ground or
slightly tipped down in the front.
b. Push down on the handles and lift the rear of
the cutting deck up off of the ground. Block the
rear of the cutting deck off of the ground the
following distances (boards work well).
Deck Position A: 3 1/4”
Deck Position B: 2”
Deck Position C: 3/4”
Lower the deck down onto the blocks. Now re-
move the outer three bolts on each side of the
rear deck. See Figure 2.

each side. NOTE: A tapered punch may be
needed to help align the holes.

the two bolts on the front of the rear deck.
