Slipping Height of Cut Adjuster
If the spring arm will not maintain height of cut, it has
lost spring tension and must be replaced. When the
height of cut spring arm is weak and has slipped a
number of times, it can wear away the notches. On
steel decks the height of cut plate should be replaced if
this happens. On cast decks, this wear is in the deck
housing itself. One alternative is to replace the deck
housing. However, there are two wear plate kits, which
fit many 21-inch Toro models:

1cm
53cm
Adjusting Height of Cut
While measurement procedures are the same for all
walk behind mowers, the type of suspension or height
of cut adjusters on a given mower determine the
procedures to use in adjusting the height of cut.
Kit PN 105-1290 fits Toro 21-inch Super Recyclers
manufactured 1995 and newer (Figure 21).
Kit PN 49-4080 fits the older 21-inch Recyclers and
Rear Baggers (Figure 22).
Models with Height of Cut Lever on Each Wheel

Mechanism Descriptions
Commercial (Pro Line), or Landscaper models.
Toro and Lawn-Boy have similar systems for individual
wheel adjusters. A spring arm with a pin to engage a
notch is used to determine the height of cut on these
models. On cast deck models this notch is molded in
the deck (Figure 19). On steel decks a steel height of
cut plate serves this purpose (Figure 20).
