IMPORTANT: When mounting blades, rotate them after
installation to ensure blade tips do not touch each other or sides
of the mower.
Seat Adjustment
The seat on the mower can be adjusted forward and rearward
by sliding the seat release handle and moving the seat until a
comfortable operating position is attained.
Figure 4-13
Steering Control Lever Adjustment
The steering control levers can be adjusted for operator
comfort. By loosening the cap screws that attach the upper
control lever to the lower lever (
Figure 4-14), the upper control
lever can be pivoted to fit the operator’s personal preference.
The steering control levers can also be adjusted up and down.
Remove the cap screws and slide the upper control lever up or
down and align the holes in it with the holes in the lower lever.
Re-install the cap screws and tighten.
The steering control levers should be adjusted so that they
align with each other when in the neutral position.
Failure to correctly torque the bolt may result in the loss
of the blade which can cause serious injury.
Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s) or
wear gloves and use extra caution when servicing them.
