Adjusting The Height Of Cut

Each unit comes with a 8mm standard height spacer ring which gives the unit a standard cut height of 40mm. You may add, subtract, or substitute spacers to achieve your desired height of cut. Cut heights must stay between 32mm – 48mm.

To adjust the cutting height, the following must be done:

1. Position the mower to the transport position and lift it to the upper position.
2. Set the tractor’s handbrake and disengage the tractor’s engine.
3. Secure the mower from falling with a chain and an additional support placed under one of the stump jumper disks.
4. Unscrew the bolts M12x25 (Position 1 in Drawing 3) and disassemble the stump jumper (Position 2 in Drawing 3).
5. Unscrew the resistance disc bolts (Position 3 in Drawing 3) M12x30 and take it off.
6. Adjust the cut height and assemble it in the reversed order.
7. Perform the adjustment in the other stump jumper disc repositioning the support.
