window that is opened by the air flow that the lawn
mower generates during operation (Fig. 16).
2.
If the flap closes during mowing, this indicates that the
grass bag is full and must be emptied (Fig. 16).

To ensure that the filling level indicator functions

Mowing Tips
m
WARNING!
Inspect the area prior to mowing and
remove all the stones, sticks, wires, and other foreign objects
that could be picked up and thrown by the rotating blade.
Failure to comply not only will damage the mower blade, but
can also lead to serious personal injury.
• Be sure to check the mowing blade periodically for signs
of wear and sharpen it at least once per year, as described
in the maintenance section.
NOTE: A sharp blade will greatly enhance the
performance of the mower, especially when cutting tall
blades of grass.
• When cutting thick grass, reduce your walking speed
in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper
discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut
off one-third or less from the total length of the grass. The
average lawn should be approximately 1.5 in. to 2 in. (3.8
cm to 5 cm) long during cool months, and more than 2 in.
(5 cm) long during hot months. If there is growth, the lawn
should be cut in the fall.
• The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same
height and in alternate directions.
