Cutting Height Adjustment Lever
One adjustment lever is located on the right rear wheel and one

cutting height, refer to the "Assembly & Set-Up" Section.

Mulch Plug

Figure 4-1

Mulch Plug (If Equipped)
The mulch plug is used for mulching purposes. Instead of
collecting the grass clippings in a grass catcher or using the
side discharge chute, some mower models have the option
of recirculating the clippings back to the lawn. This is called
mulching.
Side Discharge Chute (If Equipped)
Your mower may be shipped as a mulcher. To discharge the
grass clippings to the side instead, follow the instructions in the
"Assembly & Set-Up" section to attach the side discharge chute.
Recoil Starter
The recoil starter is attached to the right upper handle. Stand
behind the unit and pull the recoil starter rope to start the unit.
