Adjusting the Height-of-Cut

The height-of-cut is adjusted from 2.5 to 15.8 cm (1 to
6 inches) in 6 mm (1/4 inch) increments by relocating the
stop pin into different hole locations.
1. With the engine running, push back on the deck lift
switch until the mower deck is fully raised and release
the switch immediately (Figure 18).
2. To adjust, rotate the stop pin until the nub on it lines
up with the slots in the holes in the height-of-cut
bracket and remove it (Figure 18).
3. Select a hole in the height-of-cut bracket corresponding
to the height-of-cut desired, insert the pin, and rotate it
down to lock it in place (Figure 18).
Note: There are four rows of hole positions (Figure
18). The top row gives you the height of cut listed
above the pin. The second row down gives you the
height listed plus 6 mm (1/4 inch). The third row
down gives you the height listed plus 12 mm (1/2 inch).
The bottom row gives you the height listed plus 18 mm
(3/4 inch). For the 15.8 cm (6 inch) position there is
only one hole, located in the second row. This does not
add 6 mm (1/4 inch) to the 15.8 cm (6 inch) position.
