DURING OPERATION
Vari-Pitch™ Cutting Technology
Vari-Pitch™ cutting technology automatically adjusts
the cutter deck height at the rear of the mower, to
increase air fl ow when cutting longer grass.
(Refer fi g.16)
Heavy Growth
Areas of heavy growth should be mown without
collecting the clippings. Refer to Mowing without the
Grass Bag.
If collection is required, fi rst mow the area without the
grass bag, 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 grass
bag fi tted. Refer to Adjusting the Cutting Height.
Reduce the height of cut and mow the area again as
necessary until the required fi nish is obtained.
To prevent damage to your lawn do not remove more
than one third of grass height in one cut.

Grass Bag
Attaching the grass bag:
1. Raise and hold up the rear defl ector (1)
2. Hook the grass bag into position (2).
3. Lower the rear defl ector.
(Refer fi g.18)
When collecting grass clippings it is important that the
grass bag is emptied regularly to prevent blockages
and engine overloading.
Good grass collection depends on good air fl ow
through the grass bag. To empty the grass bag,
pour out the grass clippings and shake the grass bag
vigorously to clean the airways.
(Refer fi g.19)
Mowing without the Grass Bag
Remove the grass bag and operate the mower with the
rear defl ector in the closed position.

Friction Disc
The blade is driven by the engine via a friction disc
to help prevent damage occurring to the engine
crankshaft and cutting mechanism when a hidden
obstruction or overload is encountered.
(Refer fi g.21)
Always stop the engine when a hidden obstruction or
excessive vibration is encountered.
Disconnect the spark plug lead and examine the
cutting mechanism.
