Cutting Height Adjustment Adjusting the cutting height may bring you into contact with the moving blade, causing serious injury. • Stop the engine and wait for all the moving parts to stop. • Do not put your fingers under the housing when adjusting the cutting height. If the engine has been running, the muffler will be hot and can severely burn you. Keep away from the hot muffler. Adjust the cutting height as desired. Set all four wheels to the same height.
Mulching the Clippings • Alternate the mowing direction. This helps disperse the clippings over the lawn for even fertilization. • If the finished lawn is unsatisfactory, try one or more of the following. • Replace the blade or have it sharpened. • Walk at a slower pace while mowing. • Raise the cutting height on your mower. • Cut the grass more frequently. • Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full swath with each pass.
Replacing the Blade Replacing the Air Filter Service Interval: Yearly Service Interval: Every 25 Hours Important: You will need a torque wrench to install the blade properly. If you do not have a torque wrench or are uncomfortable performing this procedure, contact an Authorized Service Center. 1. Use a screw driver to open the filter cover. (Figure 12) Examine the blade whenever you run out of gasoline. If the blade is damaged or cracked, replace it immediately.
