6.4. Adjusting the cutting height
The mower has a factory-set cutting height of 58 - 60 mm. The cutting height can be adjusted
by removing a distance ring (spacer), as shown in (Fig. 25). After removing a new cutting height of
50 - 52 mm is achieved. By putting one additional spacer over the support saucer a cutting height of
66 - 68 mm is obtained. Additional spacers are available (optional extras).
CAUTION:
When mounting additional distance rings longer bolts - M10x35 must be
used and tightened to a torque of 55 Nm.

6.5. 3-point linkage support chain
(Model Z 010/2)
Support chain (Fig. 25) is used to ensure 3-point linkage frame of the mower is always at
the same height, to set the mowing unit parallel to the ground and to relieve the hydraulic lift of
the tractor. If the cutting unit is not set parallel to the ground, the bearings of sliding saucers will be
subject to premature wear.
When connecting mower to the tractor, the hanger plate "A" of support chain should be
disconnected from chain and put on the pin "B" of top link. Then the mower has to be lifted with
hydraulic lift about 40 cm high (Fig. 20). The support chain is then connected to the hanger plate
"A" so that is tensioned when the mower is in the working position.
