There are published resources available for troubleshooting aftercut appearance issues. The Aftercut
Appearance Troubleshooting Guide is setup with one page dedicated to each issue. At the top is a
description followed by a list of possible causes, then possible corrective actions.
Aftercut Appearance Troubleshooting Guide: Part No. 00076SL
First review the issue and then determine the complaint. Many complaints look very similar but if you have
duplicated the condition, this should be relatively easy to work through. Use the definition to pick out subtle
differences then review the possible causes. Compare to the issue and you can determine if some corrective
actions are easier to try than others. Determine a course of action.
Try one thing and only one thing at a time. Do so in a manner that the results can be watched over a period
of time, at least a week. Give it time to work. Remember that after cutting, the grass needs to heal before the
result will be realized.
While talking with others use the descriptions listed. Not, because it is the only correct description, but
because it has a definition that is identifiable to both of you.
