Adjusting the Flow Baffle Cam
Locks
This procedure is applicable only to machines with the
flow-baffle locks. Certain models will have nuts and bolts in
place of the flow-baffle locks and can be adjusted the same.
The mower-discharge flow can be adjusted for different types
of mowing conditions. Position the cam locks and baffle to
give the best quality of cut.
1. Disengage the blade-control switch (PTO), move the
motion-control levers to the neutral-locked position,
and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. To adjust the cam locks, swing the lever up to loosen
the cam lock (Figure 30).
4. Adjust the baffle and cam locks in the slots to the
desired discharge flow.
5. Swing the lever back over to tighten the baffle and cam
locks (Figure 30).
6. If the cam locks do not lock the baffle into place or it is
too tight, loosen the lever and then rotate the cam lock.
Note: Adjust the cam lock until the desired locking
pressure is achieved.

Positioning the Flow Baffle

The following figures are only recommendations for use.
Adjustments will vary by grass type, moisture content, and
the height of the grass.
Note: If the engine power draws down and the mower
ground speed is the same, open up the baffle.
