Section 2 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
DO NOT attempt any maintenance, adjustments or
service with engine and blade running. STOP engine
and blade. Disconnect spark plug wire and secure
away from spark plug. Engine and components are
HOT. Avoid serious burns, allow sufficient time for
all components to cool. 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. FRONT WHEELS:
Reposition the front axle by
raising the front wheels off the ground, then pull in
the spring loaded bushings until they clear the
brackets. Move bushings to the desired height of
cut position and release the bushings. See Figure
2.6.
2. REAR WHEELS:
Reposition the rear axle by
raising the rear wheels off the ground, then pull in
the spring loaded bushings until they clear the
brackets. Move bushings to the desired height of
cut position and release the bushings. Position the
rear bushings in to the same notches
corresponding with notches for the front wheels to
maintain the level of the deck. See Figure 2.6.
NOTE:
There are four cutting height adjustment notches
on each wheel. The top notch is the lowest cutting height
and the lowest notch is the highest.

2.6 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 4).
2.
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.
