Nozzle Height Adjustment
The nozzle can be adjusted to any six positions,
ranging from 5/8” to 4 1/8” ground clearance. The
nozzle height has to be adjusted according to the
conditions. Move the height adjustment levers forward
or backward to adjust the nozzle upwards or
downwards. Make sure both levers are in the same
position. See Figure 10.
NOTE: In general, raise the nozzle height to vacuum a
thick layer of leaves or to operate with the blower chute
and lower the nozzle height for smoother surfaces.
