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.
WARNING!
Clear the lawn of stones and other
objects that can be thrown out by the
blades.
WARNING!
Never drive the rider on terrain that
slopes more than 10 degrees. Mow
slopes up and down, never side
to side. Avoid sudden directional
changes.
