Deck Cutting Height Adjustment
Deck height is adjustable from 1” to 5” in 1/4” increments.
The holes in the height adjusting bar are spaced at 1/2”
intervals. By turning the height adjusting stop around, 1/4”
increments can be attained due to the 1/4” plate that is
part of the stop. Refer to Figure 3-21.
EXAMPLE: When the height adjusting stop is placed in
the 1” hole, with the 1/4” plate facing to the front of the unit,
the cutting height is at 1”. When the height adjusting stop
is placed in the 1” hole, with the 1/4” plate on the
operator’s side of the hole, the cutting height is at 1 1/4”.
When the height adjusting stop is placed in one of the
holes, with the 1/4” plate on the operator’s side of the hole,
the deck height will be set at one of the following: 1 1/4”,
1 3/4”, 2 1/4”, 2 3/4”, 3 1/4”, 3 3/4”, 4 1/4” or 4 3/4”.
When the height adjusting stop is placed in one of the
holes, with the 1/4” plate facing to the front of the unit, the
deck height will be set at one of the following: 1”, 1 1/2”, 2”,
