j The appliance permits 6 adjustments of
cutting height, from 20 to 70 mm (see Fig. D).
Tip!
j For the first cut of the season, when the stems
have grown to at least 5 to 6 cm, set a high
cutting height. Subsequently, always mow with
the same cutting height adjustment, if possible.

usual cutting height.

straws or foreign bodies).
j Increase the cutting height by about 2 cm
should the overload have been caused by long
grass straws.
