levers outward to the neutral lock 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. Adjust the anti-scalp rollers by removing the
bushing, spring disc washer and bolt.
6. Place the rollers in one of the positions shown
(Figure 18). Rollers will maintain 3/4 inch (19
mm) clearance to the ground to minimize gouging
and roller wear or damage.

For cutting heights above 3.5 inches (90 mm) use the
bottom hole. The rollers will still be effective against
scalping.
