WARNING
Unsafe Operation Hazard.
DO NOT adjust the unit for a faster overall speed forward or
reverse than it was designed for.

Checking Tire Pressures

Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and maintained
at the levels shown in the Specifications chart. Note that
these pressures may differ slightly from the "Max Inflation"
stamped on the side-wall of the tires. The pressures shown
provide proper traction and extend tire life.

the mower's cutting height. The cutting height is adjustable
between 1-1/2" (3,8 cm) and 4-1/2" (11,4 cm) in 1/4" (0,64
cm) increments.
