OPERATING THE MOWER
Slopes
To prevent engine damage do not use the mower on slopes greater than 20 degrees.
Height of Cut
To adjust the height of cut: Grip the lever and pull sideways to disengage it from the locking notch, then push forwards to lower or pull backwards to raise the height of cut. Finally release the lever at the required position and ensure it locks firmly into one of the eight setting notches.
Always select a height of cut to suit operating conditions. Aim to prevent engine overloading and blockages by avoiding low cuts in long grass conditions. Be prepared to make two cuts when the grass is long.
