• To adjust the height of cut, use lever (Fig.1.11). There are 8 set positions for the lever giving a range of cut heights from 25 to 70 mm.
• The mower can be used for a number of applications e.g. mowing with grass collection, with rear discharge, side discharge or mulching.
•
When the grass catcher is fitted, grass clippings are discharged into it. When full, the flap will close.
•
Without the grass catcher installed, the grass catcher cover serves as a deflector that directs the movement of the grass clippings towards the
ground. A row of grass clippings is thereby formed behind the lawnmower.
•
When side discharge is required, ensure the engine is turned off before attaching the side discharge deflector. Lift the side discharge cover and
attach side discharge deflector (Fig. 6). To mow with side discharge, it is necessary to install the mulching plug into rear discharge chute (Fig. 7).
• When mulching is required, ensure the engine is turned off before installing the plug (Fig.7)
• To adjust the height of cut, use lever (Fig.1.11). There are 8 set positions for the lever giving a range of cut heights from 25 to 70 mm.
