To ease the work in a tight place which restricts the
height, such as cutting the grass under an outdoor wood
deck and similars, push the lock button and then bend
down the cutting head so that the shaft is parallel to the
ground surface. Adjusting the cutting head angle
properly in this way helps you cut the grass on a slope.
