Mulching Operation
Move throttle control to
(FAST) position. Full
RPM provides the best possible mulching of grass
and leaves.
To achieve the best mulching action set mower height
of cut so no more than 1/3 of grass stem is cut off;
maximum of 1 inch (25 mm) long clippings. If you
attempt to mulch more or if grass is very lush,
mulching action will be poor. Under these conditions
it may be beneficial to use side discharge or catch
grass clippings instead of mulching.
