Grass Collector Warning Light
When the grass collector needs to be emptied, the warning
light comes on (Fig. 5) and a buzzer sounds.
Important
To prevent the discharge tunnel from getting
clogged, disengage the blades (PTO) when the warning
light and buzzer are on.
Setting the Height of Cut
Use the height-of-cut lever to raise and lower the mower to
the desired cutting height. You can set the cutting height to
7 different positions from approximately 1
to 4 in.
(25 to 102 mm).
Pull or push on the height-of-cut lever and shift it into the
desired position (Fig. 6).
