Operation
practical to mo'^IiTaHockwise direction so
that clippings are thrown toward the center
of the lawn and concentrated for pickup and
removal.
Where possible, keep the left side of the
mower toward trees, posts, or other obsta¬
cles on the first pass around the obstacles to
keep hand trimming to a minimum.
Most lawns should be mowed to keep the
grass approximately two to three inches (50
to 76 mm) high. Best results are obtained by
cutting often and not too short. To help keep
a green lawn, never mow more than one
third off the height of the grass, or a
maximum of one inch (25 mm), in one
^mowing.
On thick, or springy grass or soft ground, the
mower rollers may sink into the ground
giving too low a cut. Adjust the cutting
height as necessary.
For best appearance, grass should be cut in
the afternoon or early evening (in daylight):
when it is free of external moisture.
Where possible, change patterns occasional¬
ly to eliminate matting, graining or a corru¬
gated appearance.
