Important: When you release the blade control
bar, both the engine and blade should stop within 3
seconds. If they do not stop properly, stop using your
mower immediately and contact an Authorized Service
Dealer.

Recycling the Clippings

Your mower comes from the factory ready to recycle the
grass and leaf clippings back into the lawn.
If the grass bag is on the mower, remove it (refer to
Removing the Grass Bag) before recycling the clippings. If
the side discharge chute is on the mower, remove it and
lock the side discharge door (refer to Removing the Side
Discharge Chute) before recycling the clippings.
Important: Ensure that the rear discharge plug is in
place before you recycle the clippings (Figure 21).
