TYM Tractor still reliable? I almost let this go too far!
What happens here
To effectively cut the tall broomsedge, adjust the mower's deck height. This involves raising the mower deck using the tractor's hydraulic controls and then manually removing spacers from the hydraulic cylinder shaft on the mower. Removing spacers lowers the cutting height, allowing for a closer cut similar to a zero-turn mower.
Goal: Configure the mower deck to achieve the desired cutting height for broomsedge.
