BEFORE USE
When the mower is removed from the carton the upper handle will be
in a folded position, therefore it will be necessary to pivot the handle
into the upright position. Secure the handle in this position with the
clamp screw & nut provided. When folding handle for storage, use
extreme care not to permanently bend clutch throttle controls.
HANDLE ADJUSTMENT
Slacken 4 nuts (A) sufficiently to allow handle to be moved up and
down. Re-tighten with handle in selected position.
DEFLECTOR
Depending on cutting conditions e.g. wet grass, dry grass, high wind
velocity etc. it may be necessary to alter the angle of deflection into
the grass box. This is effected by loosening the thumb screws (A)
each side of the machine and moving the deflector plate in the desired
direction –move upwards to throw the grass higher and longer, or
downwards to throw the grass lower and shorter. Re-tighten screws
after adjustment.
CLUTCH CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The clutch operating pressure can be increased by releasing the lock
nut (A) and screwing the threaded adjuster (B) outwards a few turns
and re-tightening lock nut. This is necessary only if the unlikely
condition of clutch slip with loss of propulsion should occur.

CUTTER SETTING
The cutter is set correctly when it is lightly touching the bottom blade
along its FULL length. Hard bearing of uneven setting causes
excessive or uneven wear on cutting edges and also places undue load
on the engine. Before adjusting, lay the machine back with the handles
on the ground; making sure the petrol tap is “off”. To adjust cutting
cylinder, release clamp nuts (C), both sides of mower. Cutter is set
closer to the bottom blade by turning down (clockwise) the adjusting
screws on each side of the cutter (D) until cutter blades just contact
blade. If the cutter bears too hard on the bottom blade turn the
adjusting screws back at least a full turn and again carefully screw
down until correctly adjusted. Retighten clamping nuts.
HEIGHT OF CUT
The cutting height is raised by turning the adjusting knob (B) in a
clockwise direction. To cut lower, reverse procedure. When
adjusting for low cutting, do not set mower so low that the weight of
the machine is taken on the bottom blade instead of the front roller.
This would affect cutting, and also excessive load on the engine.
WARNING: Before making adjustments to the cutter or chains,
remove spark plug lead to avoid accidentally starting the engine.
CUTTER CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
Slacken nut (E). Move nylon chain adjuster
to give correct chain tension and retighten
nut. When correctly adjusted chain should
be slightly slack and not tightly stretched.
IMPORTANT: Check the chain tensioner
every time the cutting cylinder gets adjusted.
CLUTCH AND DRUM CHAINS
Both chains are adjusted by loosening two
nuts (G), and moving this sprocket upwards
which tightens both chains simultaneously.
After re-tightening nuts, some slackness
should be felt in each chain.
