CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the motor before adjusting the cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that the blade/blades can hit uneven ground.
The mower is fitted with a single lever control for adjusting the cutting height. Pull the lever out- wards and adjust the cutting height to the position which is most suitable for your lawn (fig. 11).
NOTE! When the machine is used for "Multi- clip", the two lowest cutting heights must not be used. The "Multiclip" function does not work if the grass is cut too short.
MAINTENANCE
Neither the motor nor the lawn mower may be serviced before the ignition ca- ble is removed from the spark plug.
Stop the motor and remove the spark plug cable if the mower is to be lifted, e.g. with transportation.
If the lawn mower needs to be tilted it should be tilted so that the spark plug face upwards. Tilt the lawn mower when the fuel tank is empty.

If grass has dried on to the cutterhead casing it can be removed by scraping. If necessary, give the un- derside a touch of paint to prevent rusting.
