Cutting tips
Localise and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid
collision.
Start with a high cutting height and reduce down until the
required mowing results are obtained.
The mowing results are best with a high engine speed
(fast rotating blades) and low driving speed (slow moving
machine). If the grass is not too high and thick, the driving
speed can be increased without noticeably depreciating
the mowing result.
The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut often.
Mowing becomes more uniform and the grass cuttings
become more evenly distributed over the surface. The
total time consumption is not greater since it is possible to
select a higher driving speed without inferior mowing
results.
Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results are inferior
since the wheels sink down into the soft lawn.
Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each
time it is used. The cutting unit should then be put in the
service position.
When the BioClip function is used, it is very important that
the mowing interval is not too long.
Before starting
Read the safety instructions and information concerning
the placement of controls and functions before starting.
Perform daily maintenance before starting as set out in
the Maintenance schedule.
