It is recommended to change the anti-scalp roller
position when the height of cut has changed.
1. Stop the machine and move the drive levers to
the neutral lock position.
2. Disengage the PTO.
3. Engage the park brake.
4. Stop the engine, remove the key and wait for all
moving parts to stop.
5. After adjusting the height of cut, adjust the
anti-scalp rollers by removing the nyloc nut,
spring disc washer, axle roller, and bolt.
6. Adjust anti-scalp rollers for normal operating
conditions. Place rollers in one of the positions
shown in Figure 15. Rollers will maintain 3/4
inches (19 mm) clearance to the ground to
minimize gouging and roller wear or damage.
Note: For Maximum Deck Flotation, place
rollers one hole position lower. Rollers should
maintain 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) clearance to ground.
Do Not adjust rollers to support the deck.
Note: Roller may need to be removed when
mowing at 1 inch (25 mm).
