HEIGHT OF CUT _________________________________________________

Cutting height for decks can be adjusted from 25-115mm. Actual cutting height may vary somewhat from the
heights given depending on turf conditions and other factors.
Note: When cutting undulating areas, lower cutting heights may cause scalping. Adjust height accordingly to
prevent turf damage.
To Change the Height of Cut
1. Park the tractor on a flat, level surface. Fully lower cutting unit. Place blocks under deck so it is supported
on all sides.
2. Refer to the chart provided for desired cutting height.
3. Caster Mount - The caster wheel mounting brackets may be attached to deck mounting plates at two
different points. Select either position 1 or 2 for the two height of cut ranges.
4. Caster spacers - Spacers may be moved from below to above the pivot spindle to make relatively small
changes in the height of cut.
a) Remove cotter pin and ring from the top of the caster yoke shaft, and remove the yoke and wheel
completely from pivot spindle mounting.
b) Select the spacers needed and place on the caster yoke shaft.
c) Reinsert the caster yoke shaft into the pivot spindle mounting.
d) Place the remaining spacers on the caster yoke shaft above pivot spindle mounting. Replace the cotter
pin and ring.
5. Fit pin to plate H to give the required height of cut.
For best performance it is recommended not to cut off more than 1/3 of the grasses length in one cut. This is
particularly important when using a mulching deck.
Adjust forward speed in consideration of the grass conditions, the performance lamp is a guide to optimise
cutting performance.
