result. If you wish to mow tall grass,
move the mower to a place without tall grass and
then turn the blades on. When engaging the
blades stand in a safe distance from the mower.
Do not engage the blades if there are people
near the mower. The rotating blades may throw
objects.

10.7 HEIGHT OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
The machine has a variable mowing height. As a
standard the height of cut can be adjusted from
50 to 100 mm / 2 to 4 inch.
The mowing height can be adjusted by switch (7)
on the RC. Follow the marks on the body of the
mower.
If the grass growth is high or wet, select a higher
mowing position
The lowest position is used when mowing well-
maintained and even areas.
NOTICE:
When mowing unknown areas for the
first time, we recommend to mow
with blades in a higher position and -
after finishing mowing - to re-examine the area
for undesirable objects. The next cut should
only be done after the grass cuttings have died.
NOTICE:
The height of cut on a slope may
significantly vary from that on a level
surface.
NOTICE:
Switch 6 has 3 positions: The maximum
and minimum limit position and the third
intermediate position, which preserves
the current height set-up.
Cleaning the mowing mechanism
After each use the mowing mechanism must be
carefully cleaned, especially the inner walls of the
mowing deck. The cleaning should be carried out
with a scraper. The mower must not be washed by
power washer or other high-pressure devices.
When cleaning, secure the machine against
moving.
Raise the mowing mechanism to the transporting
position. When cleaning, also check the blades.
Proper maintenance and treatment of the mowing
mechanism increases the quality of work and
durability of your machine.
After cleaning and drying, especially if the mower
will not be used for a longer time, treat all
scratched parts with preservative coating.
If you are lifting the mower during
cleaning, make sure that you
secure it against movement and
fall. Remove the spark plug
terminal and press the EMERGENCY STOP
button on the mower.
