Adjusting the Center Cutting Unit
Height-of-Cut Correction
With all cutting units set at the same HOC as shown
by the indicator rings, the center cutting unit may
produce a higher cut finish compared to that of the
left and right cutting units. The machine pulls the
center cutting unit but pushes the left and right cutting
units; this affects the cutting unit angle relative to the
ground. The amount of HOC variation that results
from this effect is also influenced by the terrain, but
you can achieve satisfactory results by setting the
center cutting unit HOC indicator ring lower than the
left and right cutting unit settings.
Controlling the Position of
the Individual Cutting Units
Use the 3 lift-control switches to raise or lower the
cutting units independently.

Raising the Cutting Unit
1. Pull and hold the lift-control switch.
2. Release the lift-control switches when the cutting

Raising the Cutting Units

Auto-Limited Lift
When the cutting unit drive switch is in the O

Note:
The cutting units shut off immediately and raise
to approximately 150 mm (6 inches) above ground
level.

Auto-Limited Lift in Reverse

With auto-limited lift in reverse engaged, driving
the machine in reverse causes the cutting units to
automatically raise to the limited-lift position.
