Adjust the mower as follows:
1. Pull the mower on to a smooth, level surface.
2. Adjust the mower evenly from side to side by measuring to the ground from the lower edge of
the mower deck. The desired height will be the distance from the ground to the outside lower
edge of the mower deck plus 1-5/16". The mower blade cutting edge is 1-5/16" above the
outside lower edge of the mower deck.
Note: If the height adjust cranks do not turn easily, the pivot bolts holding the carrier arm
assemblies and height adjust screw may be too tight. Loosen the pivot bolts slightly to
allow easier pivoting. Care should be taken not to loosen too much or excess wear and
flexing may occur. Greasing the threads may also allow greater ease in adjustment.
Note: After leveling mower deck, quick field adjustment can be completed by counting crank
turns. Roughly 6 turns will equal 1" of vertical movement.

The adjustment crank may unturn due to vibration. This will allow the mower's cutting height to
change. The crank can be secured by folding it down between the adjustment nut tube and the
upper pivot support. See Figure 6.
