Controls and Features 4 Blade Control Recoil Starter Grass Catcher Side Discharge Chute Cutting Height Adjustment Lever Mulch Plug Cutting Height Adjustment Lever Figure 4-1 Blade Control Mulch Plug The blade control is attached to the upper handle of the mower. Depress and squeeze it against the upper handle to operate the unit. Release it to stop engine and blade. WARNING: This blade control is a safety device. Never attempt to bypass its operations. The mulch plug is used for mulching purposes. Instead of collecting the grass clippings in a grass catcher or using the side discharge chute, some mower models have the option of recirculating the clippings back to the lawn. This is called mulching. Side Discharge Chute Cutting Height Adjustment Lever One adjustment lever is located near the right rear wheel and one is located near the right front wheel. Both levers have to be at the same relative position to ensure a uniform cut. To adjust the cutting height, refer to the "Assembly & Set-Up" Section. Grass Catcher The grass catcher, located at the rear of the mower, is used to bag the grass clippings for disposal at another site. Once the bag is full, remove it up through the handles using the strap provided and empty it before any further mowing. Your mower is shipped as a mulcher. To discharge the grass clippings to the side instead, follow the instructions in the "Assembly & Set-Up" section to attach the side discharge chute. WARNING: Keep hands and feet away from the chute area on cutting deck. Refer to warning label on the unit. Recoil Starter The recoil starter is attached to the right upper handle. Stand behind the unit and pull the recoil starter rope to start the unit. 13
