I just bush-hogged the back 5 acre pasture. After a shower I'm gonna see about moving that ignition switch. I'm hoping it will fit in that plugged hole to the left of the throttle. My knee was hitting it constantly, it was quite annoying.
I will say this, I was using a 6' king kutter bush hog and I had plenty of power. I was told 6' was too large. I got a better price for the 6' over the 5'. It was a return and was 600.00, a new 5' was 749.00. I was told I could bring it back if my tractor couldnt handle it. I had to give it a try. (I got to use my new pallet forks to unload it.. Nice.) Im really only mowing some 3' bahia grass used for horse pasture about twice a month.

I hadn't noticed it being anywhere near my knees on my CT230, which is exactly the same as yours(other than HP). I''m pretty tall and long legged. I have the deluxe suspension seat, and have it slide back quite a bit though.

Maybe he just needs to adjust his seat a bit.
