lower down the cutting unit.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The service-life of the drive belts in-
creases considerably if the engine is run
at low speed when engaging the blades.
For this reason do not increase the throt-
tle until the cutting unit has been lowered
to the cutting position.

Cutting tips

• Localise and mark stones and other fixed
objects to avoid collision.
• Start with a high cutting height and reduce down
until the required cutting result are obtained.
• The cutting results are best with a high engine
speed (fast rotating blades) and low driving
speed (slow moving machine). If the grass is not
too high and thick the driving speed can be
increased or the engine speed reduced without
noticeably affecting the mowing results.

DRIVING
• The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut
often. This is especially important when mowing
with a Mulcher unit. Mowing becomes more
uniform and the grass cuttings become more
evenly distributed over the surface. The total
time consumption is not greater since it is
possible to select a higher driving speed without
inferior mowing results.
• Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results
are inferior since the wheels sink down into the
soft lawn.
• Wash down the underside of the cutting unit with
water after use. Do not use a high pressure jet.
Put the cutting unit in the service position while
doing this.

WARNING!
Clear the lawn from stones and
other object which can be thrown
out by the blades.
