OPERATING THE MOWER

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR MOWER

1. When using your mower for the first time, choose a
smooth level area and cut in straight and slightly
overlapping strips.
2. The size and type of the area to be mowed will
determine the proper mowing pattern. Take into
account obstructions, such as trees, fences and
buildings. To keep grass clippings off fences,
sidewalks, etc., it is advisable to go over the outside of
the area to be mowed several times in a clockwise
direction. To mow the area remaining, work in a
counterclockwise direction so that the clippings are
dispersed onto the previously cut area.
3. Always keep the left side of the mower toward trees,
posts or other obstacles on the first trip around the
obstacle.
4. Most lawns should be mowed to keep the grass
approximately 50 to 80 mm (2 to 3 in.) high. Best
results are obtained by cutting often and not too short.
To keep a green lawn, never mow more than 1/3 of the
height of the grass or a maximum of 25 mm (1 in.) in 1
mowing.
For extremely tall grass, set the cutting height at
maximum cutting height for the first mowing, then
reset to the desired height and mow again. Allow the
grass to grow to 80 mm (3 in.), then cut off only the top
inch.
5. For best appearance, grass should be cut in the
afternoon or evening when it is free of moisture.

ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT

To avoid serious injury or death:
A Do not engage the mower in the transport
position.
1. Before adjusting cutting height, check that all tire
pressures are correct. If necessary adjust to the
correct tire pressure.
2. To set the cutting height, keep depressing the
hydraulic lift control pedal firmly to raise mower deck
to the top position. Make sure that the lift lock lever is
in unlock position. Adjust the cutting height control dial
to desired height.
3. Use the higher settings for mowing in a rough area or
when mowing tall grass. Lower settings should be
used only for smooth lawns where short grass is
desired.
4. Lower the mower deck by releasing the hydraulic lift
control pedal. This lowers the mower deck from the
"TRANSPORT" position to the "OPERATING"
position.
5. Adjust the anti-scalp rollers' height as recommended
below for normal operating condition. To minimize
gouging and roller damage or wear, the anti-scalp
rollers will maintain the ground clearance of 19 mm (3/
4 in.).

To change the deck adjustment knob on the 2008 Kubota ZG227A lawnmower if you can't lower the deck to adjust the mowing height, follow these steps: 1. Raise up the mower deck to the transport position. 2. Turn the cutting height set dial to the 3 in. cutting height position. 3. Place 51 mm (2 in.) height wood blocks under each side of the mower deck. Ensure that the anti-scalp rollers do not rest on the wood blocks. 4. Lower the mower deck. 5. Loosen the lock nuts of the front side of the machine. 6. Adjust the cutting height fine tuning bolts to set the height to 76 mm (3 in.). Both front side bolts must be adjusted. 7. Lock the nuts. 8. Adjust the other side equally. 9. Check the front-to-rear level. The difference between both measurements should be less than 6 mm (1/4 in.). The front side must be lower than the rear side.
