Adjusting the Anti-Scalp Rollers
It is recommended to change the anti-scalp roller
position, when the height of cut has changed.
1. Stop the machine and move the motion control
levers outward to the neutral locked position.
2. Disengage the PTO.
3. Engage the park brake.
4. Stop the engine, remove the key and wait for all
moving parts to stop.
5. After adjusting the height of cut, adjust the
anti-scalp rollers by removing the whizlock nut
and spring disc washer.
6. Adjust the anti-scalp rollers for Normal Operating
Conditions. Place the rollers in one of the
positions shown (Figure 8). Rollers will maintain
3/4 inch (19 mm) clearance to the ground to
minimize gouging and roller wear or damage.
Figure 8
For cutting heights above 3.5 inches (90 mm) use the
bottom hole. The rollers will still be effective against
scalping.

spring disc washer between the flange of the nut
and the mounting bracket.
