Question
Hi John
Hope you can help me, I have a Craftman Lawnmower engine size 4.5 model # 917.38822. This question probably sounds stupid to you but which way does the high adjuster go if I want to cut my grass high? meaning taller grass . do I move all the height ajuster to the front or the front adjuster to the front and the back adjuster to the back. I just dont get it. Please help!!!!

Hello Marcia:
No Worries. I thought this was a Trick that the OEM were Playing on the Consumer Anyway. According to the Diagram, you have the Funny Adjusted Wheels. The Back Wheels are Adjusted towards the Back. The Front are Adjusted to the Front. Make Sure the Wheels are on the Same Height Lock for Each Wheel. Don't Set the Rear Higher than the Front or Vise Versa. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let Me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.
Good Luck
Respectfully
John
