7.4 Adjusting cutting height

The mower is equipped with a continuously
adjustable cutting height of approx. 25–70 mm
(approx. 1–3 inches). The height adjustment for all
wheels is accomplished by the central adjustment
(16). Turning to the right reduces the cutting height,
and turning to the left increases the height. The
height can be read from the markings (11).
Attention: The cutting height is to be set so that
the blade does not touch the ground when the
ground is not level. Only mow with the lowest
cutting adjustment when lawns are flat.
