Note: When moving the deck lift lever up and down, the front
caster wheels must also be adjusted to coordinate with the deck
lift lever. If the deck lift lever is moved into the lowest cutting
position, then the front caster wheels must be moved into the
highest hole adjustment. Follow this guideline when adjusting
the deck height. See Figure 4-4 for reference.

Mowing
The following information will be helpful when operating your
mower.
WARNING!
Plan your mowing pattern to avoid
discharge of materials toward roads, sidewalks,
bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging
material against a wall or obstruction which may
cause discharged material to ricochet back toward
the operator.
• Do not cut the grass too short. Short grass is prone to weed
growth and yellows quickly in dry weather.
• For best results, it is recommended that the first two laps
be cut with the discharge thrown towards the center.
After the first two laps, reverse the direction to throw the
discharge to the outside for the balance of cutting. This will
give a better appearance to the lawn.
• Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds or
extremely tall grass. Your mower is designed to mow lawns,
NOT clear brush.
• Keep the blades sharp and replace the blades when worn.
WARNING!
After striking a foreign object, stop the
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and ground
against the engine. Thoroughly inspect the mower
for any damage. Repair the damage before starting
and operating the mower.
Front Wheel Pivot Lock
The two front wheels of the mowing attachment include both a
free-pivoting feature used for steering the unit around objects,
and a locking feature for mowing in a straight line or across
slopes (never up and down slopes).
To lock and unlock the front wheels:
1. Pull up on the locking rod, as shown in Figure 4-5.
2. Move the locking rod outward to and align with the hole
provided to lock the wheels in a straight ahead position.
See Figure 4-5.
3. Move the locking rod inward to align with the hole
provided to allow the wheels to free pivot, enabling
steering around objects.
