[QUOTE="Ridgefarmer63, post: 1689719, member: 23951"] Had a little rain lately so had a chance to read the manual. Outta the manual "Cutting height adjustment" _ "Cutting height may be adjusted slightly by means of the top link. Best results obtained by tilting the mower slightly backwards in rocky conditions. In order to prevent re-cutting of the stubble, the mower should not be tilted backwards greater than 5 degrees. In rocky conditions, tilting mower backwards will extend blade life, but not mowing quality". So thats it. I guess we wrer both partially right. So when the rain stopped , we tried it. Hard to guesstimate 5 degrees but, it seemed to miss more rocks. I am thinking a 1/2 " donut and keep the mower level. Or maybe 2-3 degrees back... :) [/QUOTE]
