MAINTENANCE
Gauge Wheels
Anti-scalp rollers are properly adjusted when they are 
just slightly off of the ground when the deck is at the 
desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti-
scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position 
to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Adjust Anti-scalp rollers with the mower 
on a flat level surface.

Lower position 4½" to 6" (114 to 152 mm) grass.
The rollers should be approximately ¼" (6.5 mm) from 
ground. Do not adjust the rollers to support the deck.

same position.
