I just bought a new 2022 Conquest from a Simplicity dealer with 5 hrs on it. Really like it but I'm confused with the cut height graphic in the digital display. I understand that the more bars - the higher the cut. Question is do these bars equate to a height, i.e., 4", 3 1/2", etc.? I realize I can measure it myself but just curious how to correctly read it, assuming the dealer set it up correctly which is another reason for my question.

Thanks!

I had the same concern with my Conquest while I had it. I ended up carefully leveling the deck side to side and adjusting the front to back with the back 1/4" higher. Then I mowed on the highest setting and progressively lowered the deck noting the # of bars until I got the cut I wanted. There is no perfect setting as as you try to get a good cut, good stripes and good lifting of the grass with few layover areas. When I got my Courier XT Zero Turn I went thru the same steps with the only real difference being the pin setting on the cut height.
