MOWINGTIPS
• Under certain conditions, such as very
tall grass, it may be necessary to raise
the height of cut to reduce pushing
effort and to keep from overloading the
engine and leaving clumps of grass
clippings.
It may also be necessary to
reduce ground speed
and/or run the
lawn mower over the area a second
time.
• For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the
width of cut by overlapping
previously
cut path and mow slowly.
• For better grass bagging and most
cutting conditions, the engine speed
should be set in the fast position.
• When using a rear discharge
lawn
mower in moist, heavy grass, clumps of
cut grass may not enter the grass
catcher.
Reduce
ground speed
(pushing speed) and/or
run the lawn
mower over the area a second time.
• If a trail of clippings is left on the right
side of a rear discharge mower, mow i=
a clockwise direotion with a small
overlap to collect the clippings on the
next pass.
• Pores in cloth grass catchers can
become filled with dirt and dust with
use and catchers will collect less gras_
To prevent this, regularly hose catcher
off with water and let dry before using.
• Keep top of engine around starter clea
and clean of grass clippings and chaff.
This will help engine air flow and
extend engine life.
