Always Start Mowing with Sharp
Blades
A sharp blade cuts cleanly and without tearing or
shredding the grass blades like a dull blade. Tearing
and shredding causes the grass to turn brown at
the edges which impairs growth and increases
susceptibility to diseases. Make sure blade is in good
condition and a full sail is present.
Check the Condition of the Decks
Make sure that the cutting chambers are in good
condition. Straighten any bends in the chamber
components to ensure the correct blade tip/chamber
clearance.
After Operating
To ensure optimum performance, clean the underside
of mower housing. If you allow residue to build up in
mower housing, cutting performance will decrease.
Transport
Move the Enable/Disable switch to the Disable
position and raise the cutting decks to the transport
position. Move the Mow/Transport lever to the
transport position. Be careful when driving between
objects so you do not accidentally damage the
machine or cutting decks. Use extra care when
operating the machine on slopes. Drive slowly and
avoid sharp turns on slopes to prevent roll overs.
Lower the cutting decks when going downhill for
steering control.
