How to Mow
1. Start mowing the edge of the lawn nearest to the power point so that the cable is laid out on the lawn you have already cut (N). 2. Mow twice a week in the growing season, your lawn will suffer if more that one third of its length is cut at one time and this may also result in poor collection. Please Note Do not overload your Lawnmower When mowing in long thick grass a first cut with the cutting height adjusted to its highest setting, see Cutting Height, will help reduce motor overload and will help prevent damage to your lawnmower.

Cutting Height (Without Levers)
If your lawnmower has wheel hubs as illustrated in Fig P1, the height of cut is adjusted by following steps P1-P3. 1. Remove the wheel by turning the wheel hub in an anticlockwise direction (P1) and relocate in new hole (P2) turning the wheel hub in a clockwise direction to tighten (P3). Repeat for other wheels adjusting to the same position. 1. If you have Height of Cut levers (Figs. Q), the height of cut is altered by pulling the adjustment lever away from the location slots and moving to the selected position (Q1). 2. If your electric wheeled rotary is fitted with more than one lever then these must be adjusted to the same position (Figs. Q2 - Q6). Please Note : Your electric wheeled rotary may be fitted with a mixture of cutting heights.

Cutting Height (With Levers)
