NOTE: Certain
types of grass or grass conditions
may require varying
the
height of the mower deck.
1. Before making
any adjustments,
turn mower off, wait for blade to stop,
and unplug mower.
2. Your mower features
the Black & Decker single lever wheel height
adjust system.
This system
will adjust all four wheels at the same time.
Mower adjusts
from 1-1/4 in. (32 mm) to 3-1/2 in. (89 mm) with six
increments
which are marked
on the mower.
3. Place your left hand on the height adjust handle E1 and your right
hand on the lower part of the main handle E2.
4. Pull height adjust handle
(El) away from mower, and re-set in the
desired
height adjust position.
Rotating the height adjust handle towards
the front of the mower lowers the cutting
height, and rotating towards
the
rear raises the cutting
height.
RECOMMENDED
APPROXIMATE
CUTTING
HEIGHT
The cutting
height should be in the higher recommendation
for warmer weather,
lower for shade areas and for the last mow before winter. Follow
the 1/3 rule, never cut off more than 1/3 of the total height of the grass. If lawn is too high to practice
this rule, raise the cut height before mowing
and then lower to desired
height and mow again in a clay or so.
