MOWING
The engine throttle on your mower has been preset to provide optimum bagging and mulching
performance for years to come.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the grass blades from becoming frayed
and the lawn from turning yellow.
Mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look. The swaths should overlap each other by a few inches in
order to avoid stripes.
It's important to keep the underside of the mower deck clean and remove grass build-up. This buildup
will decrease mulching quality, and make it harder for the equipment to bag the grass.
Always mow along inclines (not up and down). You can prevent the lawn mower from slipping down by
holding a position at an angle upwards. Select the cutting height according to the length of the grass. If
necessary, mow a number of times so that you never cut more than 2 inches of grass in one go.
Turn off the engine before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to rotate
for a few seconds after the engine has been turned off. Never attempt to manually stop the blade.
Regularly check to see if the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the contrary
is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade strikes an object, immediately turn
off the lawn mower and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Then inspect the condition of the
blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are damaged.
