To ease the work in a tight place which restricts the 
height, such as cutting the grass under an outdoor wood 
deck and similars, push the lock button and then bend 
down the cutting head so that the shaft is parallel to the 
ground surface. Adjusting the cutting head angle 
properly in this way helps you cut the grass on a slope.
