Step 3 - Mowing
WARNING!
- Always observe the strictest safety procedures
when using the lawnmower.
Mowing with grass bag
Start the engine and allow it run .See ”Step-2 Starting the
engine”
Keep a firm grip on the upper handle with stop/start bar and
walk bar closed and walk along with it self-propelling, never
run with the mower, be very careful when mowing uneven or
rough ground.
Mow across slopes, never up and down. Be careful when
changing the direction of the mower on a slope. Do not use
the mower on a steep slope of more than 15°.
NOTE!
- The best result will be achieved if the grass is dry.
Wet grass will tend to clog the blade and the grass
collection system. Grass grows at different rates at
different time of the year.
- Never use the lowest cutting height for the first cut
of the season or in drought conditions. Only about
one thirds of the grass height should be cut.
- If the lawnmower will not collect the cuttings
efficiently, the grass discharge chute may be
blocked. The grass bag may be full, or the underside
of the mower deck may be clogged.
Step 4 - Emptying the Grass Bag
WARNING!
Before removing the grass bag, always stop the
engine.
- Raise the discharge flap with one hand and remove the
grass bag using its handle with your other hand. To maintain
safety, the discharge flap will close back to cover the
mulching plug, when you release the flap.
- Empty the grass debris in the grass collection bag, and refit
grass collection bag. If any grass residues are caught in the
discharge chute, clean it using a brush.
