6.1 Setting Mower Height- Lift Type

1. Park the tractor and mower on level ground.
2. Using the 3-point hitch control lever, position

the front of the mower with its side skids 1” less
off the ground than desired cut height. For
example, for a 3” cut, position the skids 2” from
the ground. Set the 3-point control lever stop at
this position to maintain this height when raising
and lowering the mower.

3. Shut down the tractor and remove the key.
4. Level the mower deck front to rear by extending

or retracting the 3-point top link.

5. Level the mower side to side by manipulating

one lower lift arm length. On most tractors, at
least one of the lift arms is designed to allow for
manipulation of its length. Shortening or
extending will allow for deck leveling from side
to side.

6. Securely block up the mower at this height.
7. Remove the bolts securing the tailwheel beam

support brackets and allow the tailwheel(s) to
rest at ground level. Align beam and positioning
bracket holes with closest set of holes in
support brackets and reinstall securing the
beam(s) in position. Tighten all bolts and nuts.

8. Extend the tractor’s top 3-point link so that

when lifting the mower, the front of the deck will
raise 2 to 2½” before the tail wheel(s) leaves
the ground. This will allow the mower to follow
the contour of uneven terrain.

NOTE: Install optional check chains when there is a
problem with the hydraulic 3-Point lift maintaining a
set height or when a constant pre-adjusted cut
height is required. See Check Chains in the
Assembly Section for this accessory.
