MOWER DECKS

Adjusting Anti-Scalp Rollers

The anti-scalp rollers are set at the factory for typical
mowing height, but can be adjusted for high or low cutting
conditions (Figure 17).

Rollers are intended to prevent lawn scalping, not to
control cutting height.

For a very high cutting height, set the rollers in their
lowest position on the bracket.

For a very low cutting height, set the rollers in their
highest position on the bracket.

All rollers should be set at the same height.

Mower Belts on page 21).

Leveling the Mower Deck

These adjustments should be made on a level surface
with the tires inflated to the correct air pressure.

where 4 chains fasten to the mower mounting brackets.
The mower is leveled from front to rear by adjusting the
rod running down each side of the frame (Figure 19).

the ignition key.

2. Raise mower deck and insert 3" (7.6 cm) tall blocks

to support deck.
