Matching the Height-of-Cut
1.
Check the rear tire pressure.
2.
Set the height-of-cut to the 76 cm (3 inches)
position; refer to
(page
21).
3.
With the machine on level surface, position 1
blade front-to-rear.
4.
Measure at A, and from a level surface to the
cutting edge of the blade tips
Note:
The measurement should be 76 cm (3
inches).

Adjusting the Deck-Lift
Spring
Note:
Adjusting the compression spring alters how
much the deck floats and the amount of effort needed
to lift the deck when using the height-of-cut lever.
•
More spring extension reduces the lever lift force
required and causes the deck to float more.
•
Less spring extension increases the lever lift force
required and causes the deck to float less.
1.
Raise the height-of-cut lever and lock it into the
transport position.
2.
Check the distance between the spring nut
and the rear side of the welded mount bracket
(Figure
83).
3.
Ensure that the length is between 64 to 89 mm
(2.5 to 3.5 inches) as shown in
4.
If needed, adjust the distance by adjusting the
bolt on the front of the mount bracket
