Figure 14
NOTICE: Each blade spacer is 6 mm (1/4"). If
two or three spacers are removed, shorter
blade bolts must be used. The shorter blade
bolts for this application are mounted on top
of the deck in front of the spindles and retain
the HOC spacers when not in use.
CAUTION: Do not add or
remove blade spacers to change
cut heights if within the normal
deck cut height range. Blade
spacers are only removed to
achieve cutting heights greater
than 102 mm (4").
To gain additional cut height:
1. Set deck to maximum cut height. See
Set Cutting Height on page 14.
2. Remove blades. See Remove Blades on
page 20.
3. Remove or add spacers to achieve the
desired cutting height.
NOTICE: Store removed blade spacers on
hex bolts.
