Adjustment
Securing Blade-Brake Cable
NOTE: Use the hardware in Group 6 to complete the
following steps.
WARNING: The cable must be routed
properly to avoid contact with all sharp
edges and hot surfaces. Such contacts
damage the cable and render the
controls inoperative.
1. Press the stud found inside the snap fitting into the
hole found on the left side of the upper handle, as
shown in Figure 3- 7.
2. Secure the cable to the lower left handle with a cable
tie. See Figure 3-8. Trim off the extra length of the
cable tie.
Attaching Starter Rope
NOTE: Use a 7/16” wrench and the hardware in
Group 5 to complete the following steps.
1. Attach the eye bolt to the upper handle and loosely
thread the lock nut on to secure it. Do NOT tighten.
See Figure 3-9.
2. With the spark plug wire disconnected and grounded,
depress the blade control and pull the rope out of the
engine.
3. Loop the rope through the eye bolt. See Figure 3-9.
4. Tighten the eye bolt to the handle using the lock nut.
DO NOT overtighten.
Cutting Height Adjustment
1. Remove the carriage bolts and related hardware from
the wheels. See Figure 3-10.
2. Reattach the wheels with carriage bolts at another
hole. Remember to attach ALL wheels at the same
relative position to ensure an even cut. Refer to
instructions for Attaching The Wheels earlier in this
section. For a higher cutting height, use the lower
hole on the deck. For a lower cutting height, use the
upper hole.
