• Pull the lever out and away from the mower and
then move it forward or backward to another slot.
For rough or uneven lawns, move the height
adjustment lever to a higher position. This will help
stop scalping.
Drive Clutch Control
The adjustment wheel is located in the drive clutch
control handle housing and is used to tighten or loosen
the drive belt. You will have to adjust the drive clutch
control if any of the following happens:
1. The mower does not propel itself with the drive
clutch engaged.
2. The mower’s drive wheels hesitate with the drive
clutch engaged.
• To resolve the above problems, rotate the
adjustment wheel with your fingers: clockwise to
tighten the cable and counter-clockwise to loosen
the cable. See Figure 12.

NOTE: For some people the drive clutch control may
not be in a comfortable position. You can adjust the
handle out by tightening the adjustment wheel.

Periodic adjustment of the six speed shift cable may be
necessary due to normal wear on the cable. Adjustment
