Lifting Lever for the Mower Deck
The lifting lever is used to place the mower deck in
the transport position or one of the 17 different cutting
height positions.
The cutting height is set by placing a peg in the hole
for the desired cutting height and the peg is then
locked on the inside (hidden in illustration) with the
supplied pin.
Pull the lever backward to the locked •
position to engage the transport position.
The deck is then fully raised.
To lower, squeeze the lock handle up to the •
lifting lever while moving the lever forward.
When the lever meets the set peg, the
desired height is set.
The lifting lever can also be used to •
temporarily adjust the cutting height, such
as when passing over a minor bump in the
lawn.

Throttle control
The throttle control regulates the engine speed and
thereby the rate of rotation of the blades, assuming the
blade switch is pulled out (see Engaging the Mower
Deck).
In order to increase or decrease the engine speed, the
control is moved forward or back respectively.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a
risk of fouling the spark plugs.
USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN MOWING, for best
mower performance and battery charging.
