MULCHING
MOWING
TIPS
IMPORTANT:
For best performance,
keep mower
housing
free of built-up
grass and trash. See "CLEANING"
in the
Maintenance
section
of this manual,
° The special
mulching
blade will recut
the grass clippings
many times and
reduce
them in size so that as they fall
onto the lawn they will disperse
into
the grass and not be noticed.
Also, the
mulclted
grass will biodegrade
quickly
to
provide
nutrients
for the lawn.
Always
mulch with your highest
engine
(blade)
speed
as this will provide
the best recut-
ring action of the blades.
o Avoid cutting
your lawn when it is wet°
Wet grass tends to form clumps
and
interferes
with the mulching
action.
The
best time to mow your lawn is the early
afternoon_
At this time the grass has
dried, yet the newly cut area will not be
exposed
to direct sunlight.
° For best results, adjust the lawn mower
cutting
height
so that the lawn mower
cuts off only the top one4hird
of the
grass blades.
If the lawn is overgrown
it will be necessary
to raise the height of
cut to reduce
pushing
effort and to keep
from overloading
the engine and leaving
clumps
of mulched
grass. For extremely
heavy grass, reduce your width of cut
by overlapping
previously
cut path and
mow slowly.
I MAX 1t3
• Certain
types of grass and grass
conditions
may require that an area be
mulched
a second time to completely
hide the clippings.
When doing a sec-
ond cut, mow across
(perpendicular)
to
the first cut path°
o Change
your cutting
pattern from week
to week.
Mow north to south one week
then change
to east to west the next
week.
This will help prevent
matting
and graining
of the lawn.,
