OPERATION
ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
See Figures  - .
The depth of cut is determined by the distance from the
bottom of the wheel to the tip of blade.
To adjust the blade depth:

Stop the engine. Disconnect the spark plug wire and
move it away from spark plug.
 Loosen the adjusting knob and move the wheel arm up
to increase the depth or down to decrease the depth.
 After adjustment is complete, tighten the adjusting knob
securely.
 Reconnect the spark plug wire and start the unit.
NOTE: Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. deep
initially. Make a shallow cut to test the cutting depth. If the
cutting depth needs adjusting, this should be done progres-
sively until the desired depth is reached.
