Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn MM-2

If the lawn is overgrown (to higher than 4 inches) it may be advisable
to use a brush cutter to remove the excess turf mass before resuming
mowing at normal heights.
CLEANING
After using the mower, clean with a moist cloth. Spray the cylinder
and cutting bar with silicon spray lube.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Regularly check to insure that all bolts, nuts, and screws are tight and
that the mower is in good working order. Worn out and damaged parts
should be replaced.
The blades, if properly cared for, will mow for years before requiring
sharpening. Sharpening can only be done by a professional using
a cylinder grinder and proper techniques.
STORAGE
1. Store the MM-2 in a cool, dry place.
2. The mower should be stored out of the reach of children.
READJUSTING THE BLADE CLEARANCE
The blades are optimally adjusted from the factory. However, after
using the mower for a long period, if the cut is not clean, the blades
need readjusting. The procedure is as follows:
1. Turn the mower over to expose the cutting bar on the bottom of the
mower. [Part # 17].
Using a 10mm open end wrench, tighten the hex bolt approximately
1/4 turn [Part # 19] at one end of the cutting bar until the cutting bar
and cylinder come into contact. Spin the blade cylinder by hand and
back off the bolt approximately 1/8 turn or until the cutting bar and
cylinder are no longer in contact.
