Mowing Tips
Observe and ag rocks and other xed •
objects to avoid collisions.
Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it •
until the desired mowing result is attained.
The average lawn should be cut to 2½"
(64 mm) during the cool season and over
3" (76 mm) during the hot months. For
healthier and better looking lawns, mow
often after moderate growth. For best cutting
performance, grass over 6" (15 cm) in height
should be mowed twice. Make the rst cut
relatively high, the second to the desired
height.
The mowing result will be best with a high •
engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and
low speed (the rider moves slowly). If the
grass is not too long and dense, the driving
speed can be increased without negatively
affecting the mowing result.
The nest lawns are obtained by mowing •
often. The lawn becomes more even and the
grass clippings more evenly distributed over
the mown area. The total time taken is not
increased as a higher operating speed can
be used without poor mowing results.
Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result •
is poorer because the wheels sink into
the soft lawn, clumps build, and the grass
clippings fasten under the cowling.
Hose the mower deck underside with water •
after each use. When cleaning, the mower
deck shall be raised into the transport
position. Make sure the mower is cooled and
the engine is off.
Use compressed air to clean top surface •
of the deck. Avoid ooding water on top
surface, engine and electrical components.
When the mulching kit is used, it is important •
that the mowing interval is frequent.
