Mowing Patterns - Honda HRM215PDA Harmony Owner's Manual

MOWING
Mowing Patterns
Your Honda mower will work most efficiently if you use the
following mowing patterns as much as possible. Mower deck and
equipment design, and the direction in which the blades rotate,
cause these mowing patterns to give the best results.
MULCHING
Mulching requires the mulching
blades and mulching plug that
are standard equipment on
HRM215 mowers.
Use a counterclockwise mowing
pattern. If the lawn has an
irregular shape, or many
obstacles, divide it into sections
where you can use
counterclockwise mowing
BAGGING
Bagging requires the grass bag
that is optional for HRM215
mowers.
Use a clockwise mowing pattern.
This will give the best bagging
performance, leaving the least
amount of clippings on the lawn.
SIDE-DISCHARGE MOWING
MULCHING PAlTERN
A side-discharge chute is optional
BAGGING & SIDE-DISCHARGE
equipment for HRM215 mowers.
PATTERN
Use a clockwise mowing pattern, starting at the outer edges of
the lawn and working toward the center. This will prevent
clippings from piling up in the path of the mower.
