Here is a picture of the mowing deck from the manual, Rex:

I can't be sure, but it looks to me as if the cutters are pretty much side by side. It is common for two-blade mowers to have one blade some way in front of the other, so the cuts can be staggered, but it doesn't look that way in that picture of yours. I also haven't found any reference in the manual to moving the cutters closer together. That doesn't mean it can't be done, I may have missed it or it may not be covered. If you post pictures of your machine, all this may become clearer.
