Adjusting Cutting Height - Brave BRPFC112HEB Owner's Manual

C. ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT
WARNING: Shut off all engines and allow the mower blades to come to a complete stop
on the wing mowers and on the tow vehicle before adjusting the cutting height.
The mower deck must first be leveled from front to back before the height can accurately be
adjusted. See Figure 6. This is generally a one time adjustment that should not need to be
performed again.
Adjust the levelness of the mower deck as follows:
1. Pull the mowing unit on to a smooth, level surface.
2. Start by measuring the front and back deck height directly below the carrier arm on either side.
Each side must be adjusted separately.
3. If a difference in measurement is obtained from front to back, the deck needs to be leveled.
Turn the level adjustment bolt clockwise to raise the rear end and counterclockwise to lower
the rear end.
Note: The rear wheel assy. pivot bolt may need to be slightly loosened to aid in easy
adjustment. After levelness has been achieved, the rear wheel assy. pivot bolt must be
tightened back up.

The cutting height can be adjusted in a range from 1.5" to 5.0". This is accomplished by turning
the height adjust cranks on both sides of the mower. See Figure 7. Turn the cranks clockwise to
raise the mower cutting height and counter-clockwise to lower the mower cutting height.
When more than one mower is used at a time, it is very important to have all the mowers adjusted
as close to the same cutting height as possible to obtain a high quality cutting job.
DANGER: Shut off tow vehicle engine and allow mower blades to stop completely before
attempting to measure the cutting height.
