from the mower base side plates. Mount the holes onto the posts, one at a
time, and press inward on handle to secure the fitting.
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS
The cutting height of the mower adjusts from 1/2 – 1 1/2" (13 – 38 mm) with 4
positions for adjustment height by moving the height adjustment levers to the
required position.
To achieve the lowest cutting position, one at a time, move the adjustment levers
on both sides, located next to the smaller wheels, up to the highest position.
To achieve the highest cutting position, move the adjustment levers on both sides
to their lowest position.
Other cutting heights are achieved by moving the adjustment levers to any stop
between the highest and lowest positions.
NOTE: The two adjustment levers MUST be set
to the same position (height).

CHECKING THE ADJUSTMENT
The cutting mechanism is preset. After a long period of use it may need to be
readjusted. Check cutting performance and adjust if necessary.
1. Adjust the space between reel blades and cutter bar.
2. Turn the screw clockwise to move the lower blade towards the spindle blade.
Turn the screw counter-clockwise to move the lower blade away from the spindle
blade.
3. When the space equals the thickness of paper (0.12 mm), insert a piece of
paper between the blades and the cutter bar, and quickly turn the wheel by hand.
4. All blades should slice the paper evenly.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• Never place hands, fingers, or feet inside the
reel. Although a motor does not power this
mower, when the wheels turn the reel spins
and poses a cutting risk.
• Never mow when grass is wet as it can be
slippery.
• Do not use the reel mower while barefoot or
while wearing sandals.
• Walk behind and never run while using reel
mower. Always make sure of your footing when
using this reel mower.
• Never intentionally strike or hit trees, fences,
etc. This can cause injuries or severely damage
the reel mower mechanisms.
• Make sure your reel mower is in a safe
operating condition. Do not attempt to operate
this reel mower if damaged.
• Contact customer service or have the reel
mower repaired by a qualified repair service
provider before using.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Aminimum amount of care is required to
ensure smooth operation of your mower.
2. To avoid damage to mower or cutting blades,
keep area to be mowed free of debris.
3. For best results, regularly apply lubricant to
mower’s cutting surfaces, cutting reel axle shaft
and wheels.
SHARPENING THE CUTTING BLADES:
1. Spread a thin layer of lapping compound on
the front edge of the reel blades.
2. Adjust the cutter bar so that the blade has light
but firm contact across the full width of the cutter
bar.
Caution: Do not overtighten the adjusting screws,
as this could damage the cutter bar. Tighten both
screws during final adjustment.
3. Turn the reel blades until the front edge of the
cutter bar blade is polished.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
1.Clean the exterior of the machine thoroughly
using a soft brush and cloth before storing. Do not
use water, solvents or polishes.
2.Turn the mower on its side to clean the blade
area.
WARNING: Do not place hands in the mower near
blades. If grass cuttings are compacted in the blade
area, remove using a wood or plastic cleaning tool
appropriate for the cleaning of the blades.
3. Store the mower in a dry place. Do not place other
objects on top of the mower during storage.

Maintenance tip:
Reel mowers are relatively low maintenance. For
consistent cutting follow these below instructions:
• Always keep the cutting bar properly adjusted.
