Section 2 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

WARNING 

DO NOT attempt any maintenance, adjustments or 
service with engine and blade running. STOP engine 
and blade. Disconnect spark plug wire and secure 
away from spark plug. Engine and components are 
HOT. Avoid serious burns, allow sufficient time for all 
components to cool. 

 
2.6 RECYCLING 

OPERATION 

 
NOTE:
 For best recycling results, cut up to a maximum of 
1/3 of grass blade length and recycle ONLY when grass is 
dry. 

1.  Set all wheels in the highest cutting position 
(Notch 6). 
2.  Move engine speed control to “FAST” (Rabbit) 
position. 
3. Move ground speed control to slowest speed 
setting. 
4. Proceed mowing slowly. If grass is very dense, 
lower each rear wheel latch one notch lower than 
the front wheel latches to improve recycling 
performance. 

 
2.7  ADJUSTING FRONT DECK BAFFLE 
 

(Models with an “F” prefix in model number) 

 (Example: 

EFR216516BV) 

The front of the cutting deck on these models has 
been modified with an open area. This allows the 
blade to have more direct contact with the grass and 
allows more air flow into deck chamber. The 
adjustable baffle should be secured in the lowest 
position when using a grass bag. The baffle should 
be secured in the highest position when mulching 
grass. 
 

NOTE: Under certain conditions, when mulching, some 
grass may blow out from under front of baffle. This is 
normal but, the amount of grass blowing out can be 
reduced. Lower baffle slightly to reduce the amount of 
grass blow out. 
 

1.  Stop engine. See WARNING above. 
2.  Loosen wing nuts that secure front deck baffle. 
See Figure 2.8. 
3.  Lower the adjustable baffle to the lowest position 
when using a grass bag. Raise the baffle to its 
highest position when mulching grass. Take care to 
keep the baffle’s lower edge parallel to the bottom of 
the deck. See Figure 2.8. 
4.  Retighten wing nuts securely. 
 

2.8  INSTALLATION of GRASS CATCHER 

Install grass catcher by sliding connector over flange of 
adapter. Attach grass bag hooks over middle handle 
cross bar. See Figure 2.9. 
 
 

 

FIGURE 2.8 

 

WARNING 

DO NOT operate without entire Grass Catcher or 
guard in place. Grass Catcher components are 
subject to deterioration during normal use. Inspect 
frequently and replace worn or damaged components 
immediately.
