After adjustment is complete, tighten the adjusting knob securely.

Replace the spark plug wire and start the unit.

NOTE: Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. deep initially. Make a shallow cut to test the cutting depth. If the cutting depth needs adjusting, this should be done progressively until the desired depth is reached.
