one lever to easily adjust the
cutting height.
There are 7 height settings.

pull the height adjustment
lever (6) out and move it up a
notch, towards the handlebar.

it down a notch, towards the engine.
Note. If you are unsure of which cutting height to use, begin
with a high setting and trial a small section of lawn, then
check the appearance of the lawn. Then readjust if necessary
IMPORTANT. If mower is not used for an extended period
of time (3 months or more) fuel and oil must be decanted
(emptied) then replaced before the next use.

clean cloth. Replace it and retighten the cap.
