Height of Cut

Grip the lever and pull sideways to disengage it from the locking
notch, then push forwards to higher or pull backwards to lower the
height of cut. Finally release the lever at the required position and
ensure it locks firmly into one of the eight notch settings.
Always select a height of cut to suit operating conditions. Aim to pre-
vent engine overloading and blockages by avoiding low cuts in long
grass conditions. Be prepared to make two cuts when the grass is long.
To prevent accidents thoroughly inspect the area and remove all
objects which when contacted by the mower cutterblade could
become dangerous projectiles. Inspect the area for hidden obstruc-
tions which when contacted by the cutterblade could risk health
and safety. Remember the location of these obstructions and
ensure that you mow around them.
Raise the rear deflector and lift the grassbag through the handlebar and
lower the rear deflector to rest against the rear of the mower.
To empty the grassbag, pour out the grass clippings and shake the
grassbag vigorously to clean the airways. Good grass collection
depends on good air flow through the grassbag. When collecting grass
clippings it is important that the grassbag is emptied regularly to pre-
vent blockages and engine overloading.
Lift rear diflector and slide the Mulcher Plug into the rear discharger
chute. Ensure that the plug is fully inserted and rear deflector closed.
Note: You are not able to mulch with the side discharge chute fit-
ted.
