Adjusting the Height of Cut
The machine is equipped with a foot pedal deck-lift
system. You can use the foot pedal to lift the deck
briefly to avoid obstacles and to raise the deck.
You can adjust the height of cut from 38 to 114 mm
(1-1/2 to 4-1/2 inches) in 6 mm (1/4 inch) increments
by moving the height-of-cut pin into different hole
locations.
1.
Push on the deck-lift pedal with your foot to raise
the mower deck.
2.
To adjust, remove the pin from the height-of-cut
bracket
(Figure
25).
3.
Select a hole in the height-of-cut system
corresponding to the desired height of cut and
insert the pin
(Figure
4.
Lower the deck slowly until the lever makes
contact with the pin.

do not touch the ground in normal, flat mowing areas.

Park the machine on a level surface, disengage
the blade-control switch and engage the parking
brake; refer to

18).
2.
Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
