6. Cut grass in a test area to determine if all cutting
units are cutting at the same height.
7. If cutting unit adjustments are still needed, find a flat
surface using a 6 foot (2 m) or longer straight edge.
8. To ease measuring blade plane, raise the height of
cut to the highest position; refer to Adjusting the
Height of Cut.
9. Lower cutting units onto the flat surface. Remove
the covers from the top of the cutting units.
10. Loosen the flange nut, securing the idler pulley, to
release the belt tension on each cutting unit.

Matching Height Of Cut Between Cutting Units
1. Position blade side to side on outside spindle of
both wing cutting units. Measure from the floor
to the tip of the cutting edge on both units and
compare. These numbers should be within 1/8 inch
(3 mm) of each other.

castor wheels. Recheck measurement between
outside edges of both wing cutting units and adjust
as necessary.
