MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Do not add or remove blade spacers to
change the cutting height if the deck is within the
normal range shown in the previous chart. Blade
spacers are only removed to get cutting heights
greater than 4-1/4" (10.8 cm).
Each blade spacer is measures 1/4" (6 mm). If
two or three spacers are removed, shorter blade
hex bolts must be used. The shorter blade bolts
are kept in the frame above the deck, under the
belt cover. These bolts are also used to retain the
HOC spacers when not in use.
CAUTION! Blades are
sharp. Protect your hands with
gloves and/or wrap blades with a
heavy cloth when handling.
Rotation of one blade will cause all blades to
rotate.
1. Raise the deck to the maximum cutting height.
2. Remove the blades. See Cutting Blades in
this section.
3. Remove or add blade spacers to get the
desired cutting height.
4. Keep spacers not needed on the deck frame
bolts.

hardware removed in Step 4. Make sure
the spacer is positioned between deck and
trunnion.
7. Tighten the trunnion jam nut.
8. Reset deck cutting height.
