cutting in thick grass it may be necessary to use one of the slowest speeds in order to get a clean well mowed cut. When mowing
long grass you may have to cut the lawn in two passes, lowering the blade another 1/3 of the length for the second cut and
perhaps cutting in a different pattern than was used the first time. Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will also help to clean
up any stray clippings left on the lawn. The mower should always be operated at full throttle to get the best cut and allow it to do
the most effective job of mowing.
Clean underside of deck:
Be certain to clean the underside of the cutting deck after each use to avoid a build-up of grass, which
would prevent proper mulching. Mowing leaves. The mowing of leaves can also be beneficial to your lawn. When mowing leaves
make sure they are dry and are not laying too thick on the lawn. Do not wait for all the leaves to be off the trees before you mow.
WARNING:
if the mower blade strikes a foreign object, then stop the engine. Remove the wire from spark plug, thoroughly
inspect the mower for any damage and repair the damage before restarting and operating the mower. Extensive vibration of the
mower during operation is an indication of serious damage. The unit should be promptly inspected and repaired.
7.7 GRASS CATCHER
There is a level indicator on the top of the grass catcher that shows whether the catcher is empty or full :
- The level indicator inflates if the catcher is not full during the mowing. (Fig. 12B)
- If the catcher is full, the indicator collapses; once this happens, stop mowing immediately and empty the catcher, make sure it is
clean and ensure its meshwork is ventilated. (Fig. 12A)
IMPORTANT:
If the position of indicator opening is very dirty, the indicator will not inflate-in this case, clean the position of indicator opening
immediately.

7.8 DECK
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned after each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings, leaves, dirt or other
matter. If this debris is allowed to accumulate, it will invite rust and corrosion, and may prevent proper mulching. The deck may be
cleaned by tilting the mower and scraping clean with a suitable tool (make certain the spark plug wire is disconnected).
7.9 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS

Do not at any time make any adjustment to lawnmower without first stopping the engine and disconnecting the
spark plug wire.
