What is the recommended cutting height for my Troy-Bilt riding mower?

The recommended cutting height for a Troy-Bilt riding mower can vary depending on the type of grass and the season. Generally, it is advisable to maintain a cutting height between two and four inches. For most cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue, a height of around three to four inches is optimal. For warm-season grasses, like Bermuda and Zoysia, a height of approximately one and a half to three inches is often recommended. It is important to adjust the cutting height based on weather conditions and how frequently the grass is growing. Taller grass can provide shade to the root system and help retain moisture, particularly in hotter months. Conversely, keeping the grass too short may stress the plants and promote weed growth. For precise adjustments or specific recommendations related to your model, it is wise to consult the owner’s manual that comes with the riding mower or look at the current web page for more information.
