Adjusting Cutting Height
Most mowers feature adjustable cutting heights. The mechanism raises/lowers
the lawn mower deck and has several steps. When setting cutting height, note
that weeds can spread more easily in very short grass. If the grass is long it
may be necessary to cut it in several passes, each time lowering the cutting
height. To set the cutting height:
1. Pull the height adjustment lever (
A
) outward so that is disengages with the
teeth (
B
).
2. Rotate the lever forward to raise, or backward to lower, then release it at
the desired height.
Using the Grass Catcher
Note
: Ensure that the mulching attachment (if equipped) is not installed when using the catcher.
When you want to catch the grass cuttings for disposal, use the grass catcher. The grass catcher hooks to
the rear of the mower, under the rear guard. To attach and detach it:
1. Lift the bottom edge of the rear guard (
A
) sufficiently to allow the catcher to pass underneath it and hold
it in this position.
2. Insert the catcher (
B
), with open end toward the mower, and hook the catcher fingers (
C
) onto the
mounting points (
D
), then lower the rear guard so it rests on the top of the grass catcher.
To remove the grass catcher, lift the bottom edge of the rear guard, then lift the grass catcher to unhook it
from the mower. Once unhooked, pull the grass catcher out and lower the rear guard.
Using the Mulching Attachment
Some models may feature a "mulching" attachment. Mulching is to re-circulate the cut the grass through the
blades so that is very finely "chopped" and can be left on the cut grass as a "grass feed". When mulching,
the grass catcher is not required. To install the mulching attachment:
1. Remove the grass catcher, if installed. Lift
up and hold the rear guard (
A
).
2. Insert the mulching attachment (
B
), with
the top angled forward slightly so that the
protrusions on the bottom of the
attachment enter the slots in the mower
deck. Pull the top of the attachment back
slightly so it is correctly fitted, then lower
the rear guard.
To remove the mulching attachment, lift the rear guard, unhook the mulching attachment from the deck and
pull it out, then lower the rear guard.
