MOWING RECOMMENDATIONS
1.
Keep mower blades sharp.
2.
Make sure deck and discharge are
clean.
CAUTION
POWER MUST BE OFF TO CLEAN
DISCHARGE CHUTE. TURN ENGINE OFF
AND WAIT FOR ALL MOVING PARTS TO
STOP.
3.
When mowing tall grass, make two
passes, mowing off 1/2 of the desired
cut on the first pass, and then the
desired height the second pass. Check
for hidden dangers first.
4.
Go slowly for trimming.
5.
Always cut grass with the engine at full
throttle speed. This “ENGINE” speed
allows the cutting blades to operate at
optimum cutting speed. Control
“GROUND” speed with the Control
Lever(s).
6.
Vary ground speed to suit conditions
(i.e. go slower in tall thick grass, on hills,
wet conditions, etc.).
