MOWING TIPS
Cut grass when it is dry.
Keep mower blades sharp.
Do not set cutting height too low. For tall
grass, mow twice.
CAUTION: AVOID INJURY. Read
and understand the entire Safety
section before proceeding.
Ariens Dealers will provide any service, parts
or adjustments which may be required to
keep your unit operating at peak efficiency.
Should engine require service, contact an
Ariens Dealer or an authorized engine
manufacturer's service center.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
NOTE: Some working conditions (heavy
loads, high ambient temperatures, dusty
conditions, or airborne debris) may require
more frequent service.
See engine manual for further maintenance
and troubleshooting information.
Do not mow too fast.
Mow with engine at full throttle. Discharge
clippings into areas already cut.
Vary cutting pattern with each mowing.
NOTE: To prevent dirt and grass from
collecting on mower pan, avoid operating
over bare ground with only patches of grass.
Mulching Tips
For best mulching performance, cut no more
than 1 inch (2.54 cm) of grass per cutting.
