Operating Tips (continued)
Mowing Frequency
Grass grows at different rates at different times of the year. To maintain the same cutting
height, mow more often in early spring. As the grass growth rate slows in mid summer, mow
less frequently. If you cannot mow for an extended period, first mow at a high cutting height,
then mow again 2 days later at a lower height setting.
Mow at Slower Ground Speeds
In certain conditions, mowing at a slower ground speed can improve cut quality.
Avoid Grass Clumps
If you must stop driving forward while mowing, a clump of grass clippings may drop onto
your lawn. To avoid this, move onto a previously cut area with the blades engaged or
disengage the mower deck while moving forward.
Keep the Underside of the Mower Deck Clean
Clean clippings and dirt from the underside of the mower deck after each use. Grass and dirt
build-up will eventually decrease the cutting quality.
Maintain the Blades
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting season because a sharp blade cuts cleanly
without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Tearing and shredding turns grass brown at
the edges, which slows growth and increases the chance of disease. Check the mower
blades after each use for sharpness, and for any wear or damage. File down any nicks and
sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or worn, replace it.
