Setting the cutting height
CAUTION!
m
Adjust the cutting height only when the
engine is switched off and the plug boot
has been pulled.
• Before you begin to mow, check to ensure
that the blade is not blunt and that none of
the fasteners are damaged.
• To prevent any imbalance, replace blunt
and/or damaged blades as a set only (if
applicable). To carry out this check, first
switch off the engine and pull the spark
plug boot.
• The cutting height is centrally adjust-
ed with the cutting height adjustor lever
(Fig.13/ Item 14). 7 different cutting heights
can be selected.
• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the
desired cutting height. The lever snaps
into the desired position. (Fig. 13)
