Matching the Height-of-Cut
1.
Check the rear tire pressure.
2.
Set the height-of-cut to the 7.6 cm (3 inches)
position; refer to
(page
20).
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 7.6 cm (3
inches).

5.
If the measurement is not correct, locate the
front 2 yokes on the machine
6.
Loosen the side bolt and jam nut of the yokes.
7.
Adjust the top bolt of the yokes until the blade
tips match 7.6 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 compression reduces the lever lift
force required and causes the deck to float more.
•
Less spring compression 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
93).
3.
Ensure that the length is between 47 to 50 mm
(1.8 to 2 inches)
4.
If needed, adjust the distance by adjusting the
bolt on the front of the mount bracket
