Mulching Operation

For best mulching results, cut up to a maximum of 1/3
of grass blade length and recycle ONLY when grass is
dry.
1. Set all wheels in the highest cutting position (Notch
7). Refer to the Section entitled "Cutting Height
Adjustment".
2. Move the ground speed control to the slowest
speed setting.
3. Proceed mowing slowly. If the grass is very dense,
lower each rear wheel latch one notch lower than
the front wheel latches to improve mulching perfor-
mance.
NOTE: The mulching cover should remain on the
machine at all times, unless alternate discharge opera-
tions are desired, such as side discharging or bagging.
