The different heights of the wheels allows you
to maintain a safe distance between the
cutting deck edge and the ground.
To change the position, unscrew &
remove the screw (2) and reposition the
wheel (1) with the spacer (3) in the hole
at the desired height; then tighten the
screw (2) onto the nut (4) as far as
possible.
** Depending on the model, it may vary from the illustration or the number of height
options.
WARNING!
This work is to be done to both wheels, WITH THE
ENGINE OFF AND THE BLADES DISENGAGED.
To start cutting:
– move the throttle to «FAST»;
– raise the cutting deck as high as possible; only use the blade (
4.5), on grass
lawns, do not use the blades on stony ground or when the grass is very high.
– start moving forwards on the grass very slowly and with utmost caution, as
already described;
– regulate the cutting height and speed ( 4.6) considering the conditions of the
lawn (the height, density and dampness of the grass).
WARNING!
When cutting on sloping ground, reduce your speed to
ensure safe conditions ( 1.2 - 5.5).
Whatever the conditions, always reduce the speed if you notice a drop in engine
speed – if you travel too fast compared to the amount of grass being cut, you will
not be able to mow the grass well.
Disengage the blades and raise the cutting deck as high as possible whenever you
need to get past an obstacle.
