CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
Turn off the Lawnmower before adjusting
the cutting height.
Under certain conditions, such as tall grass,
it may be necessary to raise the height of
cut to reduce pushing effort, prevent
overloading of the motor & leaving
clumps of grass clippings. It may also be
necessary to reduce ground speed and/or
push the lawnmower over the area a
second time. For extremely heavy cutting,
reduce the width of cut by overlapping
the previously cut path & mow slowly. For
best results, adjust the cutting height to suit
the mowing conditions. Do not try to
remove too much grass in one pass.
Adjustment of the cutting height is made
centrally. Move the lever outwards to
release it from the locating notch. Move
the lever towards the top to lower the
cutting height & downwards to the higher
cutting heights. Always return the lever to
the locating notch to set the desired
cutting height.
Make sure the handle fits snugly and
securely.
MOWING YOUR LAWN
For best results, cut your lawn in alternative
directions, switching direction each time
you cut. Ensure you cut your lawn at the
same height. Slightly overlap your cutting
lines.
CUTTING ON SLOPES
When cutting on slopes, ensure your
footing is secure, the grass is not wet and
the machine is used across the slope and
not up and down the slope. The slope
gradient should not exceed 20
KEEP BYSTANDERS CLEAR
Clear the area to be mowed of any
stones, sticks, wire & debris before
beginning. Always ensure that you mow a
safe distance away (15 metres) from
adults, children & animals.
