Slopes

To prevent engine damage do not use the mower on slopes greater
than 20 degrees.

Height of Cut

Move the height of cut lever sideways to disengage it from the locking
notch, then push forwards to lower or pull backwards to raise the height
of cut. Release the lever in the required position and ensure that it locks
firmly into one of the seven notch settings.
Always select a height of cut to suit operating conditions. Prevent
engine overloading and blockages by avoiding low cuts in long grass
conditions. Be prepared to make two cuts when the grass is long.

Before Mowing

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 or result in damage to the mower. Remember the loca-
tion of these obstructions and ensure that you mow around them.

Grassbag

To empty the grassbag raise the rear deflector and lift the grassbag
through the handlebar and lower the rear deflector to rest against the
rear of the mower.
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 prevent blockages and motor over-
loading.
