Working advices
1.Walk, never run with the mower, be very careful when mowing uneven or
rough ground.
2.Mow across slopes, never up and down.
3.Be careful when changing the direction of the mower on a slope.
4. Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
5.The best result will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will tend to clog
the blade and the grass collection system.
6.Grass grows at different rates at different time of the year. Never use the
lowest cutting height for the
fi
rst cut of the season or in drought conditions.
7.Only about one thirds of the grass height should be cut.
8.When mowing with mulching, to ensure that the cut grass can be scattered
ef
fi
ciently, do not cut high or wet grass. When you have been cutting for
several minutes, please stop the mower, and clean the blade and the deck.
9.Do not remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade by hand or
with your feet. Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or broom.
Emptying the grass bag
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mower, it is time to empty the
grass bag.
NOTE:
Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the engine and wait until
the blade has come to a stop.
1.To take off the grass bag, use one hand to lift up ejector
fl
ap and the other to
grab onto the carry handle. The ejector
fl
ap automatically falls down after
removing the grass bag and closes off the rear chute opening.
2.Empty the grass debris in the grass bag, and re
fi
t grass Bag.
NOTE:
If any grass residue is caught in the discharge chute, clean it using
a brush. Do not remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade
by hand or with your feet. Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or
broom. To ensure that the cut grass can be collected into grass Bag, the
discharge opening and inside the mower casing must be cleared of any
blockage.
