Adjustments

Cutting Height
There is a cutting height adjustment lever located above the front and rear right
wheel.
1. Pull the height adjustment lever outward towards wheel (unit will tend to
fall when lever is moved outward). See Figure 9.
2. Move lever to desired position for a change in cutting height. See Figure 9.
3. Release lever towards deck.
IMPORTANT: All wheels must be placed in the same position. For rough or uneven
lawns, move each height adjustment lever to a higher position. This will prevent you
from cutting the grass too close to the ground.
Handle Pitch
For convenience of operation, you may adjust the pitch of the handle as follows:
1. Remove wing nuts and carriage bolts from handle. See Figure 10.
2. Position the handle in one of the three positions that is most comfortable.
See Figure 10 inset.
3. Secure into position with wing nuts and carriage bolts removed in Step 1.
Drive Control
The adjustment wheel is located in the drive control handle housing and is used
to tighten or loosen the drive belt. You will need to adjust the drive control if the
mower does not propel itself with the drive control engaged or if the mower's
wheels hesitate with the drive control engaged. If either of these conditions occur,
rotate adjustment wheel clockwise to tighten cable or counterclockwise to loosen
the cable. See Figure 11.
