Adjusting The Mower For Cutting; Setting Cutting Height - Pro-Flex 120 - Progressive Turf Equipment Pro-Flex 120 Operators Manual & Parts Lists

ADJUSTING THE MOWER FOR CUTTING

Ensure safety locks are properly engaged before attempting to
service mower. Make all adjustments with the tractor turned off,
key removed and parking brake set. Mower must be on level
ground before making adjustments.
SETTING CUTTING HEIGHT – PRO-FLEX 120
Each of the five independent mower decks has its own cutting height
adjustment. Cutting height is set by adjusting the height of the mower
deck wheel arms. Each deck has one fixed wheel arm and one
pivoting wheel arm; ensuring that all four tires remain in contact with
the turf while navigating contoured areas for a more uniform cut.
NOTE: For optimal cutting results, the mower should be set to
remove not more than 1/3 of the total grass height. This will
result in the best cutting performance while minimizing stress
to the grass.
The deck wheel arms are bolted solid to the deck frame in order to
provide positive cutting height control.
Follow these steps to adjust the cutting height from 3/4" to 3":
1) Place the mower deck safety latch into the locking position on
each deck.
2) Raise the mower decks into the Pro Lift-N-Turn
position (See P29).
3) Turn the engine off on the tractor, place all controls in neutral
position and set the parking brake.
4) Using the cutting height decal, determine the hole you wish to
set the axles in according to the desired cutting height.
5) On the fixed arm side, remove the two mounting bolts and
reposition the axle in the desired holes. Be sure to retighten
properly.
