CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 10)
When shipped, the wheels on the mower are set at the lowest cutting position. Before using the
mower for the first time, raise the cutting position to the height best suited for your lawn. The
average lawn should be between 1 1/2" to 2" (3.8 to 5 cm) during cool months and between 2"
and 3 1/2" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) during hot months.
To adjust the blade height:
• To raise the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the back of
the mower.
• To lower the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the front of
the mower.
