Adjusting the mowing height

WARNING:
• Never put your hand or leg under the mower unit
when adjusting the mowing height.
• Always make sure that the lever fits in the
groove properly before operation.
Remove the lock key.
Pull the mowing height adjusting lever toward A
side. Move it to your desired mowing height level.
Make sure that the pins on the mowing height
adjusting lever fit in the holes and the lever returns
to B side.
NOTE:
• The mowing height figures should be used
just as a guideline, as the state of the lawn or
ground may cause lawn height to be slightly
different to the set height figure.
• Try a test mowing of grass in a less conspicuous
place to get your desired height.
• It is easier to move the mowing height adjusting
lever with holding the tool firmly.
