The operation of any lawn mower can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result
in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields while operating your lawn mower
or performing any adjustments or repairs. We recommend a wide vision safety mask over spectacles
or standard safety glasses.
ENGINE SPEED
The engine speed was set at the factory for optimum
performance. Speed is not adjustable.
ENGINE ZONE CONTROL
CAUTION: Federal regulations require
an engine control to be installed on this
lawn mower in order to minimize the
risk of blade contact injury. Do not un-
der any circumstances attempt to defeat
the function of the operator control. The
blade turns when the engine is running.
• Your lawn mower is equipped with an operator presence
control bar which requires the operator to be positioned
behind the lawn mower handle to start and operate the
lawn mower.
TO ADJUST CUTTING HEIGHT (See Fig. 3)
• Raise wheels for low cut and lower wheels for high cut.
• Adjust cutting height to suit your requirements. Medium
position is best for most lawns.
• To change cutting height, squeeze adjuster lever toward
wheel. Move wheel up or down to suit your require-
ments. Be sure all wheels are in the same setting.
NOTE: Adjuster is properly positioned when plate tab inserts
into hole in lever. Also, 9-position adjusters (if so equipped)
allow lever to be positioned between the plate tabs.
