idle with the engine running, hot en gine exhaust gases
may cause "browning" of grass. To eliminate this possibility,
al ways stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.
CAUTION: Always stop tractor com-
plete ly, as described above, before leav-
ing the operator's position; to empty
grass catcher, etc.

gearshift lever.

TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT
(See Fig. 5)
The position of the attachment lift lever determines the
cutting height.
• Grasp lift lever.
• Press plunger with thumb and move lever to desired
position.
The cutting height range is approximately 1-1/2 to 4" (38,1
to 101,6 mm). The heights are measured from the ground
to the blade tip with the engine not running. These heights
are approximate and may vary depending upon soil condi-
tions, height of grass and types of grass being mowed.
• The average lawn should be cut to approximately
2-1/2" (63,5 mm) during the cool season and to over 3"
(76,2 mm) during hot months. For healthier and better
looking lawns, mow often and after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 6" (152,4 mm)
in height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut
relatively high; the second to desired height.
