4. Remove the flange-head bolts and nuts from each
skid.
5. Move each skid to the desired position and secure
them with the flange-head bolts and nuts.
Note: Only use the top or center sets of holes to
adjust the skids. The bottom holes are used when
switching sides on a Guardian mower deck, at which
time they become the top holes on the other side
of the mower.
6. Torque the screw at the front of each skid to 80 to
100 in-lb (9 to 11 N⋅m).
Adjusting the Rear Anti-Scalp
Rollers

1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion control levers
to the neutral locked position, and set the parking
brake.
2. Move the throttle lever to the Slow position, stop
the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. After adjusting the height-of-cut, adjust the rollers
by removing the flange nut, bushing, spacer, and
bolt (Figure 24).
