Remove the safety key when the mower is unattended and the motor is shut off .
Remember to recharge the battery after each use, no mater how short a time it was used. See
“Char ging the Battery” in Chapter 5 for details.
Adjusting the Cutting Height
Using the cutting height lever (Figure 19 ), adjust the cutting
height to cut 1 to 2 inches of gr ass at a time.
1. Remove the safety key.
2. Make sure all four w heels are level.
3. Pull the lever (toward the wheel) out of its position
notch. (The cutting height lever is spring-loaded.)
To easily adjust the cutting height, hold the handle bars with
your right hand to keep the mower steady and adjust the
lever with your left hand.

settings.
Each position moves the mower to cut a dif ferent cutting height. Pulling the cutting height lever up
towards position 1 cuts more grass (which lea ves your grass shor ter); pushing it down towards posi-
tion 6 cuts less grass (leaving y our grass higher). T he following table lists the final cut gr ass heights.
