Operation Manual

7.8 DECK

The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned after each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings, leaves,

dirt or other matter. If this debris is allowed to accumulate, it will invite rust and corrosion, and may prevent proper

mulching. The deck may be cleaned by tilting the mower and scraping clean with a suitable tool (make certain the

spark plug wire is disconnected).

7.9 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: Do not at any time make any adjustment to the lawnmower without first stopping the engine and

disconnecting the spark plug wire.

CAUTION: before changing mowing height, stop the mower and disconnect the spark plug cable.

Your mower is equipped with a central height adjustment lever offering 10 height positions.

The height (the blade to the ground) can be adjusted from 25 mm to 80 mm (10 height positions). (Fig. 13)

1. Stop mower and disconnect the spark plug cable before changing the mower cutting height.

2. The central height adjustment lever offers you 10 different height positions.

To change the height of cut, squeeze adjuster lever toward the wheel, moving up or down to selected height.
