When the height adjusting stop is placed in one of the
holes, with the 1/4” plate facing to the front of the unit, the
deck height will be set at one of the following: 1-1/2”, 2”, 2-
1/2”, 3”, 3-1/2”, 4” or 4-1/2”.
The notch located at the rear of the right height adjusting
bar (4-1/2” height) is to be used when the deck is placed in
the transport mode.
Anti-scalp wheels
Anti-scalp wheel kits are standard on the Mini Z. These
anti-scalp wheels are designed to minimize scalping when
mowing on rough uneven terrain.
After setting the cutting height, adjust the front anti-scalp
wheels so they extend below the deck but do not contact
the ground. They should always be at least 1/4” to 3/4” (.6
cm to 1.9 cm) below the deck. With the unit sitting on a flat
level surface, the front wheel position can be adjusted up or
down as needed from 3/4” to 1-3/4” (1.9 cm to 9.5 cm)
below the blade surface. Move the front wheels up or down,
in 1/2” (1.3 cm) increments, using the different axle mount
holes in the wheel mount bracket. Fig. 5-23
When adjusting the rear anti-scalp wheels, the wheel
should be in the lower axle mount hole when the front anti-
scalp wheels are in the lower or middle axle mount holes.
When the front wheels are in the upper axle mount hole, the
rear wheels should be in the upper axle mount hole as well.
NOTE: When the anti-scalp wheels are installed, the
minimum cutting height is 1” (2.5 cm) with the anti-scalp
wheels set at 3/4”.
