OPERATING THE MOWER

Heavy Growth

Areas of heavy growth should be mown without collecting the
clippings. If collection is required, fi rst mow the area without the
grassbag at the maximum height of cut setting. Allow the grass
clippings to dry out and then mow the area at the maximum
height of cut setting with the grassbag fi tted. Reduce the height
of cut and mow the area again as necessary until the required
fi nish is obtained.
(Refer fi g.18)
To prevent damage to your lawn do not remove more than one
third of grass height in one cut.

Friction Disc

The cutterblade is driven by the engine via a friction disc to help
prevent engine damage occurring to the engine crankshaft and
the cutting mechanism when a hidden obstruction or overload is
encountered.
(Refer fi g.18)
Always stop the engine when a hidden obstruction or
excessive vibration is encountered. Disconnect the spark
plug lead and examine the cutting mechanism. ALWAYS
replace a damaged cutterblade. Refer to Maintenance.

Non Grassed Areas

Fig. 18 Fig. 19
When moving the mower across non-grassed areas, stop the
engine and set the mower to the maximum height of cut to
protect the cutting mechanism.
