viking lawnmower mb 248

Hi i have had the viking mb248 for a year now and it cuts pretty good but the lowest setting is not quite low enough. Is there any way I can adjust anything on boss such as put a spacer on to lower it 5 to 10mm.

  • Hi Marc I am going to take boss off the prop shaft and put a few washers in boss where blade bolt goes through. This might lower blades enough.

  • That won't push it below deck level will it? If it does might not be a good idea

  • I've not gone below the third-from-lowest setting on my Kaaz for a few years now: conditions have changed and I cut lawns significantly higher than 20 or more years ago. Are the machines not designed for proper cutting, just rough work?

    I've had to explain to a few people recently that the lawn isn't looking much different after a cut as it's a parched, brown thing with no growth. Lowering the blades will do it a lot of damage, as scalping it in dry conditions only encourages weeds and weakens the grass.

    Could always turn the blade upside down....joking...really...honest :-)
