Information on correct mowing
We recommend that you mow in overlapping lines. Only mow with sharp,
perfect blades so that the blades of grass do not fray, making the lawn
turn yellow.
To achieve a good cut, guide the lawnmower in lines that are as straight
as possible.
These lines should always overlap by a few centimetres so that you do not leave
any strips. How often you should mow the lawn depends on how fast the lawn
grows. During the main growth period (May – June), mow it twice a week, and
once a week at other times. The cutting height should be between 4 and 6 cm
and the growth before the next cut should be between 4 and 5 cm. If the lawn
grows longer than this on occasion, do not make the mistake of cutting to normal
length straight away since this will damage the lawn. Never cut the grass by more
than half its height. Keep the underside of the mower casing clean and remove
all grass deposits from it. Deposits make it more difficult to start the mower and
also adversely affect the mowing quality and the grass discharge. On slopes mow
across the slope (not in an up or down direction). You can counteract the tendency
of the mower to slide down the slope by setting it at an angle upwards. Select the
cutting height to suit the actual length of the grass. Make several passes to ensure
that you do not remove more than 4 cm of grass length in any one pass.
Switch off the motor before you carry out any inspections of the blade. Remember
that the blade will continue to turn for a few seconds after the motor has been
switched off. Never attempt to stop the blade.
Check regularly that the blade is correctly secured, in good condition and well
ground. If not, grind or replace the blade. If the moving blade strikes an object,
stop the mower and wait until the blade has come to a complete standstill. Then
check the condition of the blade and the blade holder. If they are damaged, they
must be replaced. Place the mains lead in loops on the ground in front of the
socket. Mow away from the socket and cable and ensure that the mains lead is
always on the section of lawn that you have already mowed so that you do not
run over the mains lead with the mower. As soon as you see mown grass on the
lawn whilst you are mowing, the grass box will need emptying.
