5. Cutting Height Adjustment
The cutting height is determined by the position of the
adjustment handle and the front caster axle.
The front caster wheel axle comes standard in the middle
position. It can be removed and placed in the bottom
position to achieve additional settings for higher cutting
heights. NOTE: the top position would be used only
for aftermarket caster wheels or front rollers that
prevent access to the lower cutting heights in the
middle position.
The height is changed by moving
the adjustment handle into the
positions of the bracket.

Actual cutting height is affected by many factors
including ground hardness, levelness and grass
conditions. Using a Front Roller results in heights
approximately 1/8" - 3/16" lower in each position.

6. Drive Roller Lift Height Adjustment

not contact the frame
when in the lifted position.
Mower Operation
1. Clothing and Safety Accessories
Always wear safety glasses and appropriate clothing
when operating mower.
2. Starting
The clutch must be disengaged before starting the
engine.
Start the engine carefully and always from behind the
mower. Keep hands and feet well away from blade. If
mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine
and check the cause as it's generally a sign of trouble.
3. Engaging Clutch
Squeeze the clutch lever to start the reel and drive roller
rotation. Note: The reel blade has been adjusted at
the factory and there is slight contact with bed-knife.
Moisture in the grass provides lubrication for the reel
blade. Always disengage the clutch (release the
lever) to stop the reel blade if not cutting grass for an
extended period of time.
4. Mowing
The drive roller provides the mower's forward motion,
and the lift handle controls its contact with the ground.
The most effective way to ensure a smooth take off and
to help eliminate any roller marks on grass, engage the
clutch (lever) AFTER the roller is lowered onto the grass.
Avoid loss of control or tipping on slopes and sharp
corners by reducing speed. Stop the blade when
crossing gravel drive, walkways or roads.
If striking a foreign object, stop the engine, remove
wire from spark plug, thoroughly inspect mower for
damage. Repair damage before restarting engine.
Watch out for traffic when working near roadways.
Stay alert for uneven sidewalks, holes in terrain or
other hidden hazards when using mower. Never
operate mower unless all guards are in place.
5. Turning
When approaching a sharp turn or repositioning to start a
new cutting swath, release the clutch lever and pull the
roller lift lever back to raise it off the grass and stop the
forward motion of the mower. Push slightly downward on
the handle to relieve weight off the front and turn mower.
