2.6 Vari-Tilt Conbar System (
Figure.
3
):
The Rover Vari-Tilt System (Patent Pending) is
fitted to provide improved performance.
Generally it is recommended that the Conbar is
at it’s longest length for Mulch Mowing and it’s
shortest for Catch Mowing. These
recommendations may not suit your grass
conditions in which case you should adjust to
suit. The Conbar at it’s longest length also
provides a greater maximum height of cut.
