follows.
1. Stop the engine. 2. Disconnect the wire from the spark plug.

mower housing. Clean with soap and water. Wipe off

pivot points with engine oil every 25 hours.
2. To lubricate the engine, refer to the "Engine Instruction
Book".

Adjusting the Height of Cut

WARNING: The blade will rotate when the
engine runs. Before you change the height of
cut, stop the engine and disconnect the wire

To change the height of cut, move the position of the
adjuster arm at each wheel (A, Figure 11). Make sure each
adjuster arm is in the same position so that the mower will
cut level.
1. Disengage the adjuster arm.
2. Move the adjuster arm to another position.
