C. 4" Position (factory setting) - baffle is installed using
the bottom set of holes on the front baffle welded
inside the cutter deck. (See Figure 6.11). Placing the
baffle in the 4" setting will enhance fall cutting (leaf
pickup) and reduce cutter deck "blowout".
Figure 6-9. 3" Custom-Cut Baffle Position
A. 3" Position - baffle is installed using the top set of
holes on the front baffle welded inside the cutter
deck. (See Figure 6.9). In this position the Velocity-
Plus cutter deck will deliver the best quality-of-cut in
very tall, wiry, tough to cut grass.
B. 3-1/2" Position - baffle is installed using the middle
set of holes on the front baffle welded inside the
cutter deck. (See Figure 6.10). Can be used for
general purpose cutting. Placing the Custom-Cut
Baffle in the 3-1/2" position gives a good mix of
cutting performance in all types of grass.
