Adjusting the Cutting Height
Using the Cutting Height Lever (Figure 26), adjust the Cutting Height so that you cut off only one (1)
to two (2) inches of grass at a time.
1. Remove the Safety Key.
2. Make sure all four (4) Wheels are level.
3. Pull the Cutting Height Lever (toward
the Wheel) out of its present position
Notch. The Cutting Height Lever is
spring-loaded.
To easily move the Cutting Height
Lever, hold the Handlebar with your
right hand to keep the Mower steady
and adjust the Lever with your left
hand.
4. Move the Lever to any one (1) of the six
(6) Cutting Height Settings.
Each position adjusts the Mower’s Blade level to a different Cutting Height. Pulling the Cutting
Height Lever up towards Position 1 cuts more grass (which leaves your grass shorter); pushing the
Lever down towards Position 6 cuts less grass (leaving your grass longer).
The following table lists the final cut grass heights.
Lever Position Cut Height

1.5" (38 mm)
3 1.9" (47 mm)
4 2.2" (56 mm)
5 2.6" (65 mm)
6 3.0" (75 mm)
Mowing on Slopes
Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. All slopes
require caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.
Always:
• Use caution on slopes. Whenever possible, mow across the face of slopes, not up and down.
Exercise caution when changing direction on slopes.
• Remove objects such as rocks and tree limbs, or any other potential object possibly thrown by
the Mower Blade. Objects struck by the Mower Blade can cause severe injuries.
• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Never:
• Never mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. You could lose your footing or balance.
• Never mow steep slopes or any other areas where stability or traction is in doubt.
• Never mow on wet grass. Unsure footing could cause you to slip.
