Handlebar Height Adjustment

either the upper or lower holes on the handlebar mounting
brackets.
4. Turn the adjust knobs 90 degrees into the lock position and the
pins will snap into the holes and lock into position.
Smart Drive™ Control Adjustment
The Smart Drive control can be
adjusted up or down into any
one of five positions for
operator comfort.
1. Slide the multi-position
adjuster to the left to unlock
the control.
2. Move the Smart Drive
control up or down into the
position most comfortable.
3. Release the multi-position
adjuster and allow it to
engage.
Do not attempt to adjust the

Rear Discharging
To discharge clippings to the rear, make sure the engine is not
running, and then remove the grass bag or mulching plug. Lower the
rear discharge guard to allow grass clippings to exit as shown below.
Mulching Plug
The mulching plug helps to
curve the inside of the
mower deck for more
efficient mulching.
Install and remove the
mulching plug by raising
the discharge guard as
shown. The mulching plug
only fits one way. Remove
the mulching plug when
using a grass bag.
Grass Bag
A lawn mower works like a vacuum cleaner; it blows air through the
bag, which traps the grass clippings. Always empty the grass bag
before it becomes filled to the limit of its capacity. Bagging
performance will diminish after the bag becomes about 90% filled.
Also, the bag is easier to empty when it is not packed full.
Inspection
During normal use, the grass bag material is subject to deterioration
and wear.
NOTICE
Frequently inspect the grass bag for tears, holes, and excessive wear.
Check for necessary replacement. Make sure the new bag meets the
original specifications.
Grass bag replacement is explained on
