Mowing Tips; Clutch Control - Husqvarna Rider ProFlex 18 Operator's Manual

Mowing tips

WARNING!
Clear the lawn of stones and other
objects that can be thrown out by the
blades.
• Localise and mark rocks and other fixed objects in
order to avoid collisions.
• Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it until
the desired mowing result is attained.
• The best mowing result will be obtained at a high
engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and low
speed (the Rider moves slowly). If the grass is
not too long and thick the driving speed can be
increased without significantly impairing the
mowing result.
WARNING!
Never drive the Rider on terrain that
slopes more than 15°. Mow upwards and
downwards on slopes, never sideways.
Avoid sudden changes in direction.
• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing often.
Mowing will be more even and the clippings will be
more evenly distributed across the area. The overall
mowing time will not be longer as higher driving
speeds can be selected without impairing the
mowing result.
• Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result will be
poorer as the wheels will sink into the soft lawn.
• Hose beneath the cutting unit with water after each
use. When cleaning, the cutting unit should be
moved into the service position.
• It is important to mow frequently when mowing
with the mulching function.

Clutch control

The clutch control must be pulled out in order for the
