Adjusting the Cutting Height
Each wheel is adjusted individually with a wheel height
adjustment lever. Cutting heights are 1 inch (25 mm),
1-1/2 inches (38 mm), 2 inches (51 mm), 2-1/2 inches
(64 mm), 3 inches (76 mm), and 3-1/2 inches (89 mm).
Danger
Adjusting the cutting height levers could bring
your hands into contact with a moving blade and
result in serious injury.
Stop the engine and wait for all movement to
stop before adjusting the cutting height.
Do not put your fingers under the housing when
adjusting the cutting height.
1. Pull the wheel height adjustment lever toward the
wheel (Fig. 15) and move it to the desired setting.
