DRIVE CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
Over time, the drive control system may
become “loose”, resulting in decreased
speed. There are holes in the drive
control housing to increase tension on the
drive cable. Pro ceed as follows:
1. Turn unit off and disconnect spark plug
wire from spark plug.
2. Loosen nut, move drive control hous-
ing down handle to the next hole and
retighten nut.
3. Operate mower to test drive speed.
4. If condition fails to improve after the
above steps (forward speed remains
the same), your drive belt is worn and
should be re placed.
TO ADJUST CUTTING HEIGHT
Raise wheels for low cut and lower wheels
for high cut, adjust cutting height to suit
your requirements. Me di um position is
best for most lawns.
• To change cutting height, squeeze ad-
juster lever to ward wheel. Move wheel
up or down to suit your re quire ments. Be
sure all wheels are in the same setting.
NOTE: Adjuster is properly positioned
when plate tab inserts into hole in lever.
Also, 9-position adjusters (if so equipped)
allow lever to be positioned between the
plate tabs.

mower can result in foreign

HOW TO USE YOUR LAWN MOWER

The engine speed was set at the factory
for optimum performance. Speed is not

an engine control to be installed on this

control
bar up to the handle. The closer
to the handle the bar is pulled, the faster
