Wear a pair of gloves when performing this operation. Go to the back of the cutter and carefully rotate each blade to the position shown in Figure 2-3. Avoid direct contact with the cutting edge of the blade.

Refer to Figure 2-3:

Measure distance from cutting tip of the front cutting blade to ground surface. This distance is the cutting height.

Lift-Type Cutter

Refer to Figure 2-4:

Adjust the tailwheel if cutting height is too high or too low.
