skids and gauge wheels to the highest position.
Side Cutting Units
To adjust the height of cut on the side cutting units,
add or remove an equal number of spacers from the
caster forks, position the caster-wheel axles in the
high or low height-of-cut holes in the caster forks, and
secure the pivot arms to the selected height-of-cut
bracket holes.

Install 2 shims onto the spindle shaft as they
were originally installed. These shims are
required to achieve a level across the entire
width of the cutting units. Slide the appropriate
number of 13 mm (1/2 inch) spacers onto the
spindle shaft to get the desired height-of-cut;
then slide the washer onto the shaft.
Note:
These shims require a level across
the entire width of the cutting units. Slide the
appropriate number of 13 mm (1/2 inch) spacers
(refer to the chart below) onto the spindle shaft
to attain the desired height of cut; then slide the
washer onto the shaft.
Refer to the following chart to determine the
combinations of spacers for the setting (
