performing any adjustments or repairs. DO
NOT attempt any maintenance or service to
the engine and/or mower equipped with the
safety key in the unlocked and/or energized
mode.

energized, even if the key is in the locked
position and/or removed from the engine.
ALWAYS de-energize self starter prior to
performing any maintenance or service to the
engine and/or mower. Follow instructions on
the engine and/or machine to de-energize

Cutting Height Adjustment 
There is an adjusting plate and thumb lever at each 
wheel position to adjust the cutting height. Each 
adjusting plate has nine height positions. Height of cut 
will change if you move the thumb lever from one hole 
to another. 
Simply depress the lever towards wheel and move the 
wheel and lever assembly to the desired position. All 
wheels must be placed in the same relative position for 
uniform cutting height. See Figure 8.
Figure 8
For rough or uneven lawns, move the height 
adjustment handles to positions which will give a higher 
cutting height. Both front and rear handles must be 
placed in the same relative position.
 Handle Height Adjustment 
Figure 9
Your mower is shipped with the handle in the higher 
height position. To lower the handle height, proceed as 
follows.
Remove the starter rope from the rope guide.
Remove the upper handle by removing the hand 
knobs and carriage bolts. Lay the upper handle out 
of the way, being careful not to bend or kink the 
cable.
Remove the hairpin clips from the weld pins on the 
handle brackets. Press inward on the legs of the 
lower handle. Remove lower handle from the 
mower.
Turn the lower handle around so the notch on the 
bottom of the lower handle is facing forward as 
shown in Figure 9. Reassemble, placing the bottom 
holes in the handle over the weld pins in the handle 
mounting bracket.
Reassemble the upper handle.
Place the hairpin clips in the inner holes in the weld 
pins and attach the starter rope as instructed in the
