How do I adjust the cutting height on the Bavaria BEM 1032 lawn mower?

Question

Accepted Answer

To adjust the cutting height on your Bavaria BEM 1032 mower, you have 3 positions: 55 mm (position 1), 40 mm (position 2), and 30 mm (position 3). The adjustment is done manually by placing the front and rear axles in the corresponding notches.

Adjustment procedure:

Completely stop the engine and unplug the power cable for your safety
Check that the cutting blade is not dull; if it is, replace or sharpen it before continuing
Turn the mower upside down or lay it on its side to access the adjustment axles
Place the front axle and the rear axle in the same notch corresponding to the desired height
Ensure that the cutting blade is parallel to the ground once the adjustment is made

Which setting to choose? The ideal cutting height is between 40 and 60 mm (positions 2 and 1) for optimal lawn maintenance. This range allows for a clean cut without damaging the grass. Position 3 (30 mm) is reserved for very short grass. Important: never cut more than half of the current height of your grass at once, as this will damage it. Prefer multiple gradual passes, cutting only 4 cm maximum at a time.

Once the adjustment is made, the mower will cut a strip 32 cm wide at the chosen height. Adjust your selection according to the season: higher positions in spring and autumn promote grass health, while a shorter height may be considered in mid-summer if necessary. Regularly check that the adjustment remains uniform on all four wheels throughout the season.
