Custom-Cut Baffle Adjustment - Scag Power Equipment SW Operator's Manual

Custom-Cut Baffle Adjustment

The Custom-Cut Baffle is designed to deliver optimum
airflow and superior cutting performance in any type of
grass. The Custom-Cut Baffle can be raised or lowered
to precisely tailor the deck's performance for the type of
grass being cut. The baffle can be set in three (3)
different positions for optimum performance.
A. 3" Position - baffle removed. (See Figure 10). With
the baffle removed, the Advantage cutter deck will
deliver the best quality-of-cut in very tall, wiry, tough
to cut grass.
B. 3-1/2" Position (factory setting) - baffle is installed
using the bottom set of holes on the Custom Cut
Baffle. (See Figure 11). For general purpose
cutting, place the Custom Cut Baffle in the 3-1/2"
position. This gives the best mix of cutting
performance in all types of grass.
C. 4" Position - baffle is installed using the top set of
holes on the Custom Cut Baffle. (See Figure 12).
Placing the baffle in the 4" setting will enhance fall
cutting (leaf pickup) and reduce cutter deck
