Also, the mulched grass will biodegrade quickly to provide nutrients for the lawn.
• Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet. Wet grass tends to form clumps and interferes with the mulching
action. The best time to mow your lawn is the early afternoon. At this time the grass has dried and the newly
cut area will not be exposed to the direct sun.
• For best results, adjust the lawnmower cutting height so that the
lawn mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass blades. If
the lawn is overgrown it will be necessary to raise the height of
cut to reduce the cutting effort and to keep from overloading
the motor and leaving clumps of mulched grass. For extremely
heavy mulching reduce your width of cut by over-lapping the
previously cut path and mow slowly.
• Certain types of grass and grass conditions may require that an area be mulched a second
time to completely hide the clippings. When doing a second cut, mow across or perpendicular
to the first cut path.
• Change your cutting pattern from week to week. Mow north to south
one week then change to east to west the next week. This will help
prevent matting and graining of the lawn.
