Grassbox full window:
As the grassbox fills up, grass will be visible through the window.
When the window / grassbox is full it is time to empty the grassbox.
How to mow:
1. Start mowing the edge of the lawn nearest to the power point so the
cable is laid out on the lawn you have already cut (Fig. E).
2. Mow twice a week during the growing season. Your lawn will suffer
if more than a third of its length is cut at one time.
DO NOT OVERLOAD YOUR LAWNMOWER.
Mowing long thick grass may cause the motor speed to drop. You will
hear a change in the motor sound. If the motor speed drops you may
overload your lawnmower which may cause damage. When mowing in
long thick grass a first cut with the cutting height set higher will help
reduce the load. See Adjusting the cutting height.
