TO ADJUST THE DECK CUTTING HEIGHT (See Fig. 5)

The deck cutting height is obtained by pressing the foot pedal forward to lift the deck. To lower the deck, you apply pressure to the top side of the foot pedal and allow it to pivot while allowing the lift arm to rotate to the rear of the unit. To stop in a desired cutting position, rotate the foot pedal down into the notch in the height plate. The cutting height range is from 1 1/2" to 4 1/2" in 1/2" increments. The heights are measured from the ground up to the blade tip with the engine not running.

•The average lawn should be cut to 2 1/2" during the cool season and to over 3" during the 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 the desired height.
