M7040 w/ Land Pride 2596 Cutter

[Snakebit12]

I have a Land Pride RCR2596 that I pull with a Kubota M7040. The cutter literature states that this unit has a cutting height range of 2" - 12".

Currently as is, I have the hydraulic cylinder fully extended (8"). As measured on level ground, the bottom of the deck at full extension is 6" off the ground on all four sides so the deck is level. With the blade about 1" above the bottom of the deck, that means that my max cutting height is 7".

Does anyone have one of these cutters and can explain to me how to raise the cutting height to the advertised 12"?

Here is a photo of my RCR3596 lifted all the way up,never measured it but I bet its gonna be around the 12in. mark.
Here is a close up see if you can see anything,that may be different...

Unfortunately, everything looks the same. I don't mind mowing pastures at 7" but I'd sure like to raise the deck higher for travel purposes as I have some rocky terrain that I need to navigate.

Thanks for responding.
