7.5. RECOMENDATIONS
Always cut the grass when it is dry. Avoid mowing
the lawn when it is wet after having watered or after
having rained.
Cut less than 2 cm of grass at a time. If your lawn is
very high, it is advisable to make successive passes
with the 2 cm cutting height every time. So no it will
force both machine.
Cut your lawn often, at least once a week in spring
and summer.
Do not always make the same route when mowing. It
is best to change your route to avoid the grass being
cut in the same direction.
If you need to move the mower between two lawn
areas always first switch off the mower.
Sharpening the blade: A dull blade requires more
energy. A dull blade also cuts badly and makes the
grass yellow.
To obtain a green and bushy lawn, it is necessary to
frequently cut and aerate it regularly, providing the
necessary manure or fertilizer.
The cutting frequency will depend on growth (May-
June). You will need to cut one or two times a week.
At other times of the year, it will be enough to cut it
only once a week.
