Sam Owens, this is a super-helpful video! Thanks!

Thanks Sam, I just used mine to cut my grass the second time and I love it. Get yourself some of the Big Blast WD-40 for lubricating before and after you cut the grass.

[@samowens44]

Yes, I spray lube on the cutting bar and blades. Cuts much nicer.

Thank you sir

I just got the same one brand new, Doesn't cut paper on the sides only middle, should I tighten a hair on Both sides or is the whole thing defective? I called the company before ordering and they told me it would be calibrated new.

I got it to cut on both ends, trick was to adjust both sides simultaneously

@@brianbaldino3496 Yes,, you have to see where it is cutting good and where not, if just on one side, you can adjust very small amount to bring into cutting condition. A few times and you will develop the technique that meets your requirements. Good luck. Use a lubricant on the blades before cutting, spray clean the mower after cutting and spay WD-40 all over to displace all the water. Will last a very long time.

@@samowens44 I've been using the 16 inch model for a season, always wiped down the blades with WD40 After cutting. Supposed to do in before cutting too?
