Adjusting Mower Deck Anti-Scalp Wheels

The flattest cut can be achieved by having all anti-scalp wheels adjusted off the ground. Check antiscalp wheel adjustments each time the mower deck cutting height is changed.

It is recommended that all anti-scalp wheels be kept off the ground to minimize scuffing.

  1. Inflate tires to correct pressure.

  2. Adjust mower deck to desired cutting height.
