to achieve the correct blade-to-ground heights. If you
remember that the front right blade tip adjustment is fixed
and you level to that height, adjusting the decks will be
simplified.

adjustment may be made by lowering or raising the height
of cut link accordingly. To raise the deck: remove the
shoulder bolt mounting the height of cut link to the lift
handle and reassemble the shoulder bolt in the lowest of
the three holes. To lower the deck: remove the shoulder
bolts mounting the height of cut link, flip the height of cut
link around and reassemble the shoulder bolts in the top of
the set of three holes and the bottom hole.
Adjusting the Deck Corner Gauge Wheels
WARNING! Keep hands and feet away from the
discharge opening of the cutting deck.
NOTE: The deck gauge wheels are an anti-scalp feature of the
deck and are not designed to support the weight of the cutting
deck.

Using the power implement lift, set the deck in the desired

Adjusting the Rear Rollers
The rear rollers help prevent the scalping of high spots and
uneven terrain across the center section of the deck. The rollers

positioning of the rear roller will also help to filter the mulched
grass clippings into the turf.
NOTE: Roller should not be lowered if the cut height is set at 2-⁄
