Cutting Height Adjustment Table - Craftsman 247.887360 Operator's Manual

CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT TABLE
Note: The front edge of the cutting deck should be 1/8" - 1/4" below the rear edge of the deck so that the blades are
cutting grass in only the front half of their circular path. This decreases friction and reduces the drive power required.
