speed of travel is reduced. This allows the mower the
time necessary to make its initial cut, and then the
subsequent cuts that chop the materials into small pieces
to be discharged properly. Failure to do this will result in
a poor finished look and the possibility of stalling the
engine.
• Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will
accumulate under the mower deck and leave undesirable
clumps. Allow grass to dry before mowing.
• Always operate mower engine at full throttle when
mowing to assure the best mowing performance and
proper discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by
selecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
• When mowing extremely dense brush and saplings, do
not attempt to mow over any area that the tow vehicle
cannot maneuver through.
