INSTALLING THE GRASS CATCHER

(MODEL UT13220 ONLY)

See Figure 6.

NOTE: When using the grass catcher, do not install either the side discharge deflector or the mulching plug.

Lift the rear discharge door.

Lift the grass catcher by its handle and place under the rear discharge door so that the hooks on the grass catcher are seated on the door rod.

Release the rear discharge door. When installed correctly, the hooks on the grass catcher will extend through the openings on the rear discharge door.

SETTING BLADE HEIGHT

See Figure 7.

When shipped, the wheels on the mower are set to a low- cutting position. Before using the mower for the first time, adjust the cutting position to the height best suited for your lawn. The average lawn should be between 1-1/2 in. to 2 in. during cool months and between 2 in. and 3-1/4 in. during hot months.

To set the blade height:

To raise the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever and move it toward the back of the mower.

To lower the blade height, grasp the height adjustment lever and move it toward the front of the mower.
