GRASS CATCHER
8
It is possible to purchase a grass catcher for the Ozito Push Reel Mower. This
accessory can be purchased through your local Bunnings Warehouse. Accessory
model no. ACLMP-001.
1. While using the push reel mower always wear substantial footwear and
long trousers.
2. Make sure the lawn is clear of sticks, stones, wire and debris; that could be
thrown by the blades.
3. Before using the mower and after any impact, check for signs of wear or
damage and repair as necessary.
4. Sharpen worn or damaged blades.
Walk at a Good, Steady Pace
With a push reel mower, the rotation of the wheels turn the blade reel. The mower
will tend to bind up and skid if it is moving at too slow a pace. The faster the
wheels are travelling, the faster the blade reel turns. Therefore, moving at a
comfortably quick walking pace will achieve the best results.
Overlapping Rows
When mowing a lawn, slightly overlap the row that has already been mowed. This
will make the force required to move the mower easier because less grass is being
mowed at one time. Overlapping rows will also ensure a neat cut by removing grass
that may have been missed on the previous row.
Don't let the Grass get too Tall
Push reel mowers are harder to push when the grass gets too tall, therefore it is
recommended to mow on a weekly basis.
Push Reel Mowers don't Mow Tall Weeds
The push reel mower will tend to roll over tall weeds without cutting them. This
includes tall weeds that are more than six inches, and things like dandelions and docs.
If the desired lawn to be mowed has a significant weed infestation, enquire at your
local Bunnings store how to rectify the problem, or as an alternative, rent a petrol
powered mower to gain control of the lawn. Push reel mowers are designed to cut
lawns in reasonable condition.
The Metal Guard protects your Garden
The metal guard does not only protect your hands and feet, but also the garden.
The push reel mower can be pushed right up to flowers and shrubs without
damaging them. This feature means the push reel mower can cut the edges of the
lawn where garden plants exist minimising any potential damage.
