Mowing Tips - Honda HRR216VXA Owner's Manual

A worn, cracked, or damaged blade can break,
and pieces of the damaged blade can become
dangerous projectiles.
Thrown objects can cause serious injury.
Inspect the blades regularly, and do not operate
the mower with a worn or damaged blade.
The Distributor's Limited Warranty (page 57) does not cover parts
damaged by accident or collision.
Gravel and Loose Objects
Gravel, loose stones, and landscaping material can be picked up by
the mower and thrown many feet with enough force to cause serious
personal injury and/or property damage. The best way to prevent
potential injury from thrown objects is to release the blade control lever
to stop the blade before reaching areas with gravel, loose stones, or
landscaping material.

MOWING TIPS

When to Mow
Most grasses should be mowed when they
have grown ½ to 1 inch above their
recommended height. More frequent mowing is required for mulching
than for bagging. For best mulching results, you may need to mow the
lawn twice a week during the growing season.
Cutting Height
Consult a local nursery or lawn and garden center for
cutting height recommendations and advice about
specific types of grasses and growing conditions in
your area.
Most grass has stems and leaves. If you cut off the
leaves, you'll scalp the lawn. Let the grass recover
between mowings. Your mower will work better,
and your lawn will look better.
