Section 2 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

WARNING 

Before attempting any adjustments to the cutting height, 
STOP the engine, remove the spark plug wire from the 
spark plug and secure wire away from plug. DO NOT make 
any adjustments with engine or blade running. Be 
extremely careful when performing adjustments around 
engine. Engine is extremely hot and can cause severe 
burns. Wear heavy leather gloves when handling or 
working around cutting blades. Blades are extremely sharp 
and can cause severe injury. 

 
2.5  CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT 

1. Fixed Wheel Models: Pull the height adjusting 
latch outward and move to desired cutting height. 
See Figure 2.7. 
2. Swivel Wheel Models: Remove hair pin and 
clevis pin install in highest hole for lowest cutting 
height and lowest hole for highest cutting height.  

IMPORTANT: Move rear height adjustment latch for rear 
wheel adjustment to correspond with raising or lowering 
the front wheels to maintain the level of the deck. 
 

 

FIGURE 2.7 

 

3.  Set all wheels at the same cutting height. The 
highest cutting position is Notch 6. The lowest 
cutting position is Notch 1. See Figure 2.8.

2.6  SWIVEL WHEEL LOCK and UNLOCK 
 

(Swivel Wheel Models Only) 

 
IMPORTANT:
 Engage the lock on the swivel wheel to 
maintain better control of machine when operating on 
slopes. 
 

1.  Stand in the operator’s position. Push machine 
forward until swivel wheel is positioned in the 
forward direction. Wheel must be positioned in a 
forward direction to engage swivel wheel lock. 
2.  Push wheel lock lever forward to lock swivel 
wheel in place. Swivel wheel will stay in the forward 
direction position. See Figure 2.9. 
3. Pull wheel lock lever rearward to unlock swivel 
wheel. In the unlocked position, the swivel wheel will 
rotate 360 degrees.

2.7 RECYCLING 

OPERATION 

 
NOTE:
 For best recycling results, cut up to a maximum of 
1/3 of grass blade length and recycle ONLY when grass is 
dry. 
 

1.  Set all wheels in the highest cutting position (Notch 6). 
2.  Move engine speed control to “FAST” (Rabbit) 
position. 
3.  Move ground speed control to slowest speed setting. 
4.  Proceed mowing slowly. If grass is very dense, lower 
each rear wheel latch one notch lower than the front 
wheel latches to improve recycling performance.
