MOWING
TIPS
• Tire
chains
cannot
be used
when
the
mower
housing
is attached
to tractor.
Mower
should
be properly
leveled
for best
mowing
performance.
See "TO LEVEL
MOWER
HOUSING"
in the Service
and
Adjustments
section
of this manual.
The
left hand
side
of mower
should
be
used for trimming.
Drive so that clippings
are discharged
onto
the area that has already
been cut.
Have
the cut area to the right of the tractor.
This
will result
in a more
even
distribution
of
clippings
and more
uniform
cutting.
When
mowing
large areas, start by turning
to the right so that clippings
will discharge
away
from
shrubs,
fences,
driveways,
etc.
After
one or two rounds,
mow in the
opposite
direction
making
left hand turns
until finished.

•
If grass is extremelytall,
itshould
be mowed
twice to reduce
load and possible
fire haz-
ard from dried clippings.
Make first cut rela-
tively high; the second to the desi red height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass
will
plug
mower
and
leave
undesirable
clumps.
Allow grass to dry before mowing.
Always
operate
engine
at full
throttle
when
mowing
to
assure
better
mow-
ing
performance
and
proper
discharge
of material.
Regulate
ground
speed
by
selecting
a low enough
speed
to give the
mower
cutting
performance
as well as the
quality
of cut desired.
, When
operating
attachments,
select
a
ground
speed
that will suit the terrain
and
give best performance
of the attachment
being
used.
