Step 3 - Mowing
WARNING!
- Always observe the strictest safety procedures when using the lawnmower.
A
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.
