1. Insert the mulching insert (32) into the rear discharge chute (30). Make sure the side
discharge attachment (33) and grass catcher (22)
(16) is in place.
2. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain or dew. Wet grass may form clumps
which interfere with the mulching action and reduce runtime. The best time to mow
grass is late afternoon when the grass is dry and the newly cut area will not be
exposed to direct sunlight.
3. Set the cutting height to about one third of the grass blade length, ideally no more
than 35 mm at one time for best mulching performance. If the lawn is overgrown,
it may be necessary to increase the cutting height to reduce the pushing effort and
prevent the engine overloading. For extremely heavy mulching, it is advisable to
make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
4. Keep the housing free of built-up grass for best performance. From time to time
switch the product off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Then
turn the product on its side. Using an object such as a wooden stick, remove any
accumulation of grass in the blade area. Be careful of the sharp edges of the blade.
Clean often after cutting new grass and after every use.
5. Certain types of grass or grass conditions may require an area to be mulched a
second time to fully disperse the grass across the lawn. When cutting a second time,
the cutting pattern in any way that would cause you to mow downhill.
6. Change your cutting pattern from week to week. This will help prevent matting and
graining of the lawn.
Side discharging
NOTE:
When using the side discharge function, the grass clippings are
discharged and spread across the ground.
Attach the side discharge attachment (33). Make sure the mulching insert (32) is inserted
and the grass catcher (22)
