Ensuring a clean cut
mWARNING! The steel blades are extremely sharp.
To avoid injury, do not touch the blades while making
adjustments. Misalignment of the blades can occur, which
often results from blades that are either too loose or too tight.
This can cause an uneven cut or diculty pushing the mower
(Fig. 14).
1. Place the mower on a at surface. Remove the handles
and the grass catcher. Turn the mower reel upside down
to expose the cutting bar.
2. Using one of the twenty (20) pieces of paper provided,
insert one of these pieces of paper between the cutting
bar and the reel blades, then slowly turn the wheel by
hand (Fig. 15).
3. All the blades should slice the paper evenly along the
entire length of the cutting bar while the reel is turned
smoothly.
