7. NG HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT To prevent mower blades from striking the ground or hidden objects your mower should be set to the highest position that will give the desired cutting height By setting your mower up this way you reduce blade wear and stress to the mower Mowing at regular intervals will yield far better results than periodic mowing i e less wind row ing To adjust cutting heights follow these steps STEP 1 Raise rotary mower off the ground with the tractor and SECURELY BLOCK IN POSITION Remove 5 8 bolt from adjusting bracket See Figure K STEP2 Move the A frame tail wheel up or down to desired cutting height Re install 5 8 bolt and tighten to secure in position See Figure L Note It may be necessary to loosen the A frame tail wheel attachment bolts See Figure L as shown by the arrow Figure K Figure L 20 Note For best results in heavier cutting conditions adjust the deck so the rear of the mower is approximately 2 higher than the front This method requires less horse power and ground speeds of approximately 3 5mph If finer shredding results are de sired adjust the deck to level or slightly lower in the rear This method will keep ICII age under the deck longer resulting in finer pieces The down side of this method is if it takes a lot more horsepower and very slow ground speed This method is not rec ommended unless a PTO speed of 540 RPM can be maintained ROTARY MOWER OPERATION STEP 1 Before ea
