dense, the driving speed can be increased
without noticeably depreciating the mowing
result.
• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing often.
The mowing becomes more even and the
grass clippings more evenly distributed over
the mown area. The total time taken is not
increased as a higher driving speed can be
used without poorer 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
attach under the deck.
• Hose beneath the mower deck with water after
each use. When cleaning, the mower deck
should be raised into the transport position.
• When the mulch deck is used, it is extremely
important that the mowing interval is not too
long.
WARNING!
Never drive the machine on ter-
rain that slopes more than 10°.
Mow slopes up and down, never
side-to-side. Avoid sudden direc-
tional changes.
Transport & Extended Periods of
Inactivity
On units equipped with the hydraulic deck lift
system, it is recommended the deck be lowered
against the stop pin during transport or extended
periods of inactivity.
