You can put spacers under the blade, a twin pack of spacers are available from Flymo part no. 513811081., from memory you are allowed to fit three spacers.

SOURCE: does not give a short enough cut

Have you always had this problem?
Have you had the blades off to sharpen?
Could the blades have been mistakenly put on upside down ?
The turned up piece goes toward the deck
Check your deck hangers to be sure they are free and not binding anywhere and to be sure they are dropping as far as they can go in the lowest deck setting.
your deck should move up and down evenly as you lower and raise it.
Unless spacers are an option for this cause i wouldnt use them.
Check the tire pressure 14 psi front 10psi rear .

hope some of this helps for you

SOURCE: New mower hit small stump, cuts too low now/ can't adjust height

It is a bend blade. I feel your pain...I had a riding lawnmover that took a good two-hours to take apart and chage blades and 3/4 of an acre with old ornamental garden root balls popping up all the time. That was a long summer...

You may want to get the blade ahead of time so whomever can help you look under the mower can change the blade once they confirm it is bent. Even if they can fix the old one it is a blade you will need sooner or later and they are not very expensive.

My new 2 week old cricut explore air 2 is giving me problems with not cutting right , all it is doing is shredding the vinyl …. help

It sounds like it may be out of adjustment. Before taking it back, I’d try readjusting before taking it back. You have to learn your equipment before giving up. Very finicky.

I need to adjust my scag mower deck

The mower deck can be adjusted from a height of 1.0 inch to 6.0 inches at 1/4-inch intervals. To adjust the cutting height:
1. Disengage the power to the cutter blades.
2. Push the cutting height adjustment foot pedal all the way forward using your right foot until it locks in place
3. Insert the lanyard pin into the cutting height index at the desired cutting height. Push forward on the deck lift foot lever, hold in place and pull back on the deck release lever. Slowly release the foot pedal. A deck height decal is located on the cutting height index as an aid in adjusting the deck to the desired height.

Flymo Roller Compact Heigh lever keeps dropping

I drilled a hole through the lever, and used a self tapping screw to fix it permantly in position. I cannot adjust the height without drilling another hole, but it is better than buying a new machine.

Can the blade height be adjusted on the flymo 300 compact?

the blade shape can not be changed they are heat treated and if bent they will break, the only way to change the blade height is by changing the blade adapter.
