Cutting Height Adjustment
The deck lift pedal adjusts the mower cutting height. The
cutting height is adjustable between 1-1/2" (3,8 cm) and
4-1/2" (11,4 cm) in 1/4" (0,64 cm) increments.
To adjust cutting height:
1. Fully depress the deck lift pedal (A, Figure26) until the
deck lift lock lever (B) locks the deck into the highest
position (transport position).

2. Place the cutting height adjustment pin (C) into the hole
for the desired cutting height.
Note:Make sure the pin is inserted into the holes in both
upper and lower plates of the adjustment bracket (D).
3. Depress the deck lift foot pedal and then push the deck
lift lock lever towards the right to release the lock.
4. Slowly release the deck lift pedal until it comes to rest
against the cutting height adjustment pin.
Suspension Adjustment
The shock assemblies (A, Figure 27 - front shown, rear
similar) can be adjusted to vary the amount of pre-load
applied to the springs. This allows the operator to customize
the ride according to operator’s weight and operating
conditions.

Less Pre-Load:
• Light operator weight
• Softer, more cushioned ride
• Best for relatively flat terrain
More Pre-Load:
• Heavy operator weight
• Stiffer, more rigid ride
• Better handling and greater stability on hilly terrain
To Adjust the Spring Pre-Load:
1. Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage the
PTO, pivot the ground speed control levers out to the
NEUTRAL position, and stop the engine.
2. To adjust the front shocks: Turn the pre-load
adjustment collar (B, Figure 27) with your hand to a
higher notch (-) to decrease the pre-load, or to a lower
notch (+) to increase the pre-load.
WARNING
Use two hands when adjusting the shock springs. This will
prevent the wrench from slipping while pressure is applied.
3. To adjust the rear shocks: Using the supplied spanner
wrench (p/n 5022853), insert the tip of the wrench into
