Anti-scalp wheels
Anti-scalp wheel kits are standard on Hustler Mid Mount Z units.
These anti-scalp wheels are designed to minimize scalping when mowing
on rough uneven terrain.
After setting the cutting height, adjust the front anti-scalp wheels so they
extend below the deck but do not contact the ground. They should always
be at least 1/4” to 3/4” (6.35MM to 19.05MM) below the deck. With the unit
sitting on a flat level surface, the front wheel position can be adjusted up or
down as needed from 3/4” to 1-3/4” (19.05MM to 44.45MM) below the blade
surface. Move the front wheels up or down, in 1/2” (12.70
MM) increments,
using the different axle mount holes in the wheel mount bracket. Fig. 3-17
When adjusting the rear anti-scalp wheels, the wheel should be in the
lower axle mount hole when the front anti-scalp wheels are in the lower or
middle axle mount holes. When the front wheels are in the upper axle
mount hole, the rear wheels should be in the upper axle mount hole as well.
NOTE: When the anti-scalp wheels are installed, the minimum cutting
height is 1” (2.5
CM) with the anti-scalp wheels set at 3/4” (1.91CM).

Mounting
If a BAC-VAC™ is to be mounted to an Hustler ATZ tractor it will be
necessary to remove the following from the unit:
1. Drive wheel weights
2. Frame weights located between the drive wheels
3. The front and rear mount legs of the ROPS structure. The two post
ROPS structure will remain. Fig. 3-19
The weights included with the BAC-VAC™ will be used instead of the
Hustler ATZ tractor weights.
If a BAC-VAC™ is mounted to the Hustler ATZ it will be necessary to
remove the BAC-VAC™ and front wheel weights from the tractor and it
will be necessary to re-attach the drive wheel weights, frame weights and
the front and rear mount legs to the tractor before operating the unit on a
slope.
