When starting to mow, position the accelerator lever at ¾ or at "MAX" to ensure adequate power (Pict. 6).

cutting bar may undergo damage.

When moving forward or back with the mower running, first squeeze the clutch lever which will block the bar, then squeeze the wheel release
lever and move as needed.

The handles can be adjusted in height and sideways (Pict. 9 Ref.
