I know it seems sorta complicated, but it really isn't.....

everthing, everyone has said, & a little more.....

not familiar with your brand, so again, assumming,....(like a pz..)

the mower (everything, - drums, upper gearbox, 3 pt., all components & the weight combined) sets/rests on the bottom 'saucers - pans - 'up-side-down frizbee' [whatever the correct term is?] -

[not saying it is the correct way][but works for me] - on level ground - set the front of the drum the same height as the the back of the drum via the top link of the 3pt., being 'conscience that with forward motion the cutter will tend to 'tilt' forward (leading edge down)[also depends on the looseness/wear of the cutter -- I have one cutter that will tilt a little further than the other, due to wear in the connection parts].

too far farward, the blades will be cutting into the earth.....too far backwards (depending upon the quality of skirting on the cutter - will 'cover' you with earth, unless you have an enclosed cab..... .....

the exact height of the cut will be governed by the amount of 'cup' in the bottom saucers & how high they (the saucers) hold the the blades off the ground..... ...

no need to 'pick it up' while passing back over 'cut grass' -- [it is "not" the same as a sickle--(if anything like my pz)]-- cut the field out - anywhich way ya please..(the tedder &/or rake & even the baler - will cover/hide all traces of cutting mistakes/fun)...if'n it won't.....(trade it in & get ya self a 20 - 30 year??? old pz..!! so's ya can have some fun & enjoy the ride..
