Drawbar type mower height is controlled by removable stops on the hydraulic cylinder along with adjustable linkage for the tongue.
For any drawbar hitch mower you'll need hydraulic remotes on the tractor, for a batwing mower it needs dual remotes.
I'm going to try to discourage you from the LCG models with some information.
LCG models get their stability by lowering the centerline of the tractor and making it wider, although they use different spindles on the front the rear axle height is determined by the height of the tire, of which only half of the tires height is added to the tractors overall height.
These numbers show that although the standard 4610 appears to be much taller than the LCG model it is in fact less than 7" taller at the axles centerline.
The rear tires on the AP model can be set to a wider stance than the LCG and will hold an additional 200 lbs of liquid ballast in each tire proving additional stability and traction.
I feel the low drawbar height of the LCG will severely limit the tractors overall usability. The low ground clearance will allow the tractor to easily become high centered and stuck on stumps, large rocks or in tire ruts, also any 3 point implement you hook to will be 7" closer to the ground at full lift height which could allow the implement to belly out on the ground went crossing a ditch or rut in the field.
Additionally those small 18.4-16.1 LCG tires cost around $200 more each than 16.9-30 ag tires and nearly twice as much as a SU models 14.9-28 tires.
After researching this info I now think your best option would be a standard AP (all purpose) model with ROPS, the tires and front axle spread as wide as possible and the tires loaded with liquid ballast.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
