TO ADJUST
MOWER
CUTTING
HEIGHT
The cutting
height
is controlled
by turning
the height
adjustment
knob in desired
direction.
• Turn knob clockwise
(f_i)
to raise cut-
ting height.
• Turn
knob
counterclockwise
(1_-_) to
lower cutting
height.
The cutting
height
range is approximately
1-1/2" to 4". The heights
are measured
from the ground
to the blade tip with the
engine
not running.
These
heights
are ap-
proximate
and may vary depending
upon
soil conditions,
height
of grass
and types
of grass being mowed.
• The average
lawn should
be cut to
approximately
2-1/2
inches
during the
cool season
and to over 3 inches
during
hot months.
For healthier
and better
looking
lawns,
mow often and after
moderate
growth.
• For best cutting
performance,
grass over
6 inches
in height
should
be mowed
twice.
Make the first cut relatively
high;
the second
to desired
height.
