CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
(See Figure 9)
When shipped, the wheels on the mower are set to a low-cutting position. Before using the
mower for the first time, raise the cutting position to the height best suited for your lawn. The
average lawn should be between 1 1/2" to 2" (3.8 to 5 cm) during cool months and between 2"
and 3 1/2" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) during hot months.
To adjust the blade height:
• To raise the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the back of
the mower.
• To lower the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the front of
the mower.
