OPERATING THE MOWER
CUTTERBAR OPERATION
MOWING AND GRASS CARE TIPS
In dry weather conditions leave the grass long to help retain
ground moisture.
Aerate the lawn to stimulate soil organisms and root growth.
In spring and late summer remove dead grass and aerate the
lawn by raking or similar means.
Maintain a sharp cutterbar. Ablunt cutterbar will tear the grass
and cause the tips to turn brown.
WARNING - PREVENT ACCIDENTS : ALWAYS stop the engine when a hidden
obstruction or excessive vibration is encountered. Disconnect the spark plug lead and
examine the cutting mechanism. ALWAYS replace a damaged cutterbar - refer to
"Maintenance".
The cutterbar rotates at the same speed as the engine. The cut-
terbar will stop within three seconds of the engine being
switched off.
WARNING - PREVENT ACCIDENTS : DO NOT operate the mower if the cutterbar
fails to stop within three seconds. Return the mower to your Hayter dealer for exami-
nation and repair.
The cutterbar is driven by the engine via a friction device to help
prevent damage occurring to the cutting mechanism when a hid-
den obstruction or overload is encountered. When the obstruction
or overload situation is removed the friction device will automat-
ically reset.
