Warning
The impeller continues to rotate for a few seconds
after the engine is stopped, and can cause serious
personal injury.
Do not place any part of your body into the
impeller area until you a certain that it has
stopped.
Adjusting the Intake Housing
Height
You can adjust the clearance between the air intake
housing and the ground by moving height adjustment
control to desired position. Set the height to low (L) for
vacuuming hard surfaces such as sidewalks or driveways
and to high (H) for thick lush turf with a heavy covering
of leaves or clippings. The vacuum will work best when
you keep the intake as close to the ground as is practical
for the task you are performing.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Tip the machine slightly to the rear to take the weight
off the castor wheels while adjusting.
3. Move the height adjustment control forward to lower
the intake housing; move it to the rear to raise the
housing (Fig 12).
