Adjusting The Height-Of-Cut; Adjusting The Gage Wheels - Toro 30436 Operator's Manual

Adjusting the Height-of-Cut

The height-of-cut can be adjusted from
1 to 4-1/2 inch (25 to 114 mm) in 1/4 inch (6 mm)
increments. Adjustment is done by relocating four hairpin
cotter pins in different hole location and by adding or
removing spacers.
Note: All height–of–cut pins need at least one spacer or
damage can occur to bushing if none are used.
Note: All height–of–cut pins can use only two spacers
maximum.
1. Select hole in height-of-cut post and number of spacers
corresponding to the height-of-cut desired (Fig. 19).
2. Using lift handle,raise side of deck and remove hairpin
cotter (Fig. 19).
3. Add or remove spacers if needed and then align holes
and insert hairpin cotter (Fig. 19).
Note: Spare height–of–cut spacers may be stored on posts
and retained by a hairpin cotter.
Important All four hairpin cotter pins must be in the
same hole location and with the correct number of spacers
for a level cut.

Adjusting the Gage Wheels

The gage wheels need to be adjusted in the proper hole
location for each height-of-cut position. There needs to be
3/8 inch (10 mm) minimum clearance above the ground.
1. After adjusting height-of-cut, check the gage wheels so
that there is a minimum of 3/8 inch (10 mm) clearance
above the ground (Figures 20, 21, and 22).
2. If adjustment is needed, remove the bolt, washer(s)
and nut (Figures 20, 21, and 22).
3. Select a hole position so the gage wheels are a
minimum of 3/8 inch (10 mm) off the ground
(Figures 20, 21, and 22).
4. Install the bolt, washer(s) and nut (Figures 20, 21,
and 22).
