Cutting Height
Each wheel has a height adjustment lever to change the
cutting height of the mower. To change the height of cut,
squeeze adjuster lever toward the wheel, moving up or
down to selected height. See Figure 7.
Drive Control
The adjustment wheel is located in the drive control
handle housing and is used to tighten or loosen the
drive belt. You will need to adjust the drive control if
the mower does not propel itself with the drive control
engaged or if the mower’s wheels hesitate with the drive
control engaged. If either of these conditions occur,
rotate the adjustment wheel clockwise to tighten the
cable or counterclockwise to loosen the cable, Figure 8.
