Using the Self-propel Drive
To operate the self-propel drive, simply walk forward with
your hands on the upper handle and your elbows at your
sides, and the lawn mower will automatically keep pace
with you. The faster you walk, the farther the handle will
slide and the faster the lawn mower will propel (Fig. 9).

To slow down the drive, simply slow your walking speed;
to stop the drive, stop walking (Fig. 9).
Note: If, when backing up after self-propelling, the lawn
mower does not roll backward freely, nudge the lawn
mower forward about an inch without engaging the
self-propel drive, then pull the lawn mower backward.
Adjusting the Cutting Height
You can adjust each wheel individually with the wheel
height adjustment lever. Cutting heights are 1 inch
(25 mm); 1-1/2 inches (38 mm); 2 inches (51 mm);
2-1/2 inches (64 mm); and 3 inches (76 mm).
Danger
Adjusting the cutting height levers could bring
your hands into contact with a moving blade and
result in serious injury.
•
Stop the engine and wait for all movement to
stop before adjusting the cutting height.
•
Do not put fingers under the housing when
adjusting the cutting height.
1. To change the cutting height, pull the cutting height
lever toward the wheel and move it to the desired
position (Fig. 10).
