Mowing the Green

Important:
on your model) sounds or you notice an oil leak
while cutting on a green, immediately raise the
cutting units, drive directly off the green, and
stop the machine in an area away from the green.
Determine the cause of the leak and correct the
problem.
Before mowing greens, find a clear area and practice
starting and stopping the machine, raising and
lowering the cutting units, turning, etc.
Inspect the green for debris, remove the flag from
the cup, and determine the best direction to mow.
Base the direction to mow on the previous mowing
direction. Always mow in an alternate pattern from the
previous mowing so that the grass blades are less apt
to lay down and therefore be difficult to trap between
the reel blades and the bedknife.
