Mowing Tips
Before mowing check the area to
be mowed for debris that can be
removed. Objects that are fixed and cannot be re-
moved, flag the object so a collision does not occur.
●
Start by setting the Zero Turn Mower at the desired cut-
ting height so desired result is attained. The average
lawn should be cut to a height of 2-1/2’’
during cool seasons and 3” during hot months. For health-
ier, better looking lawns mow often after moderate growth
has occurred.
●
Grass over 6” in height should be mowed twice. Make
the first cut relatively high and then mow a second time
at desired height.
●
Mowing results are best when the engine is a full throt-
tle (blades spin faster) and the travel speed is low. If
grass is low, travel speed can increase without affecting
mowing results.
●
Avoid mowing when grass is damp or wet. The mowing
results can be poor and cause the wet grass to clump
under the deck and stick to the underside of the mow-
ing deck, resulting in an uneven cut.
After Mowing is Completed
●
After the Zero Turn Mower is shut down and the engine
has cooled, use compressed air to clean the top sur-
faces of the Zero Turn Mower deck and frame. If com-
pressed air is not available a leaf blower can be used.
●
Avoid using water on top surfaces around engine and
electrical components.
●
Raise the Zero Turn Mower deck to its highest position
and hose the underside of the Zero Turn Mower deck
to remove any build up of grass clippings.
Mowing Near Water, Ditches, and
Embankments
Operating this Zero Turn Mower
near water where drop offs are
present is unsafe. Wheels dropping over the edge
can cause rollover or loss of traction resulting in se-
rious injury or death by drowning.
Refer to SAFETY SECTION: Using ROPS & Seat Belts
For Operating on Slopes Safety.
●
Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips and rises that can
change the operating angle. Keep away from drop offs
and steep banks. Tall grass can hide these obstacles.
●
Use caution near drop offs, ditches, or embankments.
The Zero Turn Mower can suddenly turn over if a wheel
goes over an edge of a ditch, drop off, embankment, or
an edge caves in.
●
Mow a safe distance from water’s edge (Ponds or
Lakes). A Danger Zone of 10 feet should be observed.
