Push Mower Mowing Height

Greetings. I have been a lurker for quite some time. This forum really helps me in the past couple months. We installed new sod over a month ago, 90% fescue + 10% KBG (N. CA zone 9). We have reduced watering from twice a day to once a day to twice a week, along with application of coffee grounds and other organic matters. The first mow (two weeks after sod installation) was horrifying, with my Brill Luxus push mower taking off almost 1/2 of the blades. I thought I had it set wrong since we have not had a lawn for over a year during the remodel. Nope. It was set at the maximum height of 45mm. I love my push mower and I wouldn't trade it for any gas-powered model, but is there anyway I can mow higher than 1.8" for my fescue?
