Adjustments

Cutting Height

Each wheel has a height adjustment lever to change the cutting
height of the mower. Refer to Fig. 3-7.

Depress height adjustment lever towards wheel.
Slide lever to desired position for a change in cutting
height.
Release lever towards deck.
IMPORTANT: All wheels must be placed in the same
relative position. For rough or uneven lawns, move the
height adjustment lever to a higher position. This will stop
scalping of grass.
