movement, release the brake lever. The lawn mower will then stop
immediately.
9.5 Height adjustment instructions (Fig 14)
Caution: before changing mowing height, stop mower and disconnect spark
plug cable.
Your mower is equipped with a central height adjustment lever offering 7 height positions.
▪ Stop mower and disconnect spark plug cable before changing mower cutting height.
▪ Pull the adjusting handle out and select the desired cutting height. The handle snaps into
the desired position.
▪ All wheels will be in the same height of cut.
Medium position is best for most lawns.
9.6 To clean a flooded engine
▪ Release the engine start/stop lever to stop engine.
▪ Remove the spark plug, dry it and then reinstall it.

9.7 Emptying the grass bag
▪ As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mower it is time to empty the grass bag.
▪ Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the engine and wait until the blade has come to
a stop.
▪ To take off the grass bag, use one hand to lift up ejector flap and the other to grab onto
the carry handle. The ejector flap automatically falls down after removing the grass bag
and closes off the rear chute opening.
▪ Empty the grass debris in the grass bag and refit grass bag.
9.8 Mowing tips
▪ Under certain conditions, such as very tall grass, it may be necessary to raise the cutting
height to reduce resistance (prevent overload of the engine) and leaving clumps of grass
clippings. It may also be necessary to run the lawn mower over the area a second time.
▪ For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut by over lapping previously cut paths
and mow slowly.
