• Hold operator presence control bar

down to lhe handte and press switch

button to start mower.

MOWING TIPS

• Under certain conditions, such as very

tail 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.

o For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the

width of cut by overlapping previously

cut path and mow slowly.

,When using a rear discharge lawn

mower in moist, heavy grass, clumps of

cut grass may not enter the grass

catcher. Reduce ground speed (push-

ing 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 in

a clockwise direction with a small

overlap to collect the clippings on the

next pass.

oPores in cloth grass catchers can

become filled with dirt and dust with use

and catchers will collect less grass. To

prevent this, regularly hose catcher off

with water and let dry before using

• Keep top of engine around starter clear

and clean of grass clippings and chaff.

This will help engine air flow and extend

engine life.

MULCHING MOWING TIPS

IMPORTANT: For best performance,

keep mower housing free of built-up

grass and trash. See CLEANING in

Maintenance section of this maeuaJ

= The special mulching blade will

recut the grass clippings many

times and reduce them in size so

that as they fall onto the lawn they

wilt disperse into the grass and not

be noticed.Also,the mulched

grass will biodegrade quickly to

provide nutrients for the lawn

', Avoid cutting your lawn when it is

wet. Wet grass tends to form

clumps and interferes with the

mulching aclion The best time Io

mow your lawn is the early

afternoon, At this time the grass

has dried and the newly cut area

will not be exposed to the direct

sun

° For best results, adjust ti_e lawn

mower' cutting height so that the

lawn mower cuts off only the top

one-third of the grass blades If the

lawn is overgrown it will be

necessary to raise the height of

cut to reduce pushing effort and to

keep from overloading the motor

and leaving clumps of mulched

grass° For extremely heavy

mulching, reduce your width of cut,

mow slowly and raise the rear of

the lawn mower one wheel

adjuster setting higher than the

front.

,, Certain types of grass and grass

conditions may require that an

area be mulched a second time to

completely hide the clippings.

When doing a second cut, mow

across or perpendicular to the first

cut path.

° Change your cutting pattern from

week to week. Mow north to south

one week then change to east to

west the next week, This will help

prevent matting and graining of the

lawn_
