There is a cutting height adjustment lever located above the rear left wheel.

fall when lever is moved outward). See Figure 10.
2.
Move lever to desired position for a change in cutting height. See Figure 10.

Handle Pitch
For convenience of operation, you may adjust the pitch of the handle as follows:
1.
Remove wing nuts and carriage bolts from handle. See Figure 11.
2.
Position the handle in one of the three positions that is most comfortable.
See Figure 11 inset.
3.
Secure into position with wing nuts and carriage bolts removed in Step 1.
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 adjustment wheel clockwise to tighten cable or counterclockwise to loosen
the cable. See Figure 12.
NOTE: For ease of adjustment, the speed control should be in the second or third
speed.
