Recycling Tips
General Tips
Follow these instructions whether cutting grass or
leaves for the best cutting results and lawn
appearance:
•
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting
season. Periodically file down nicks on blade.
Only mow dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and leaves
tend to clump on yard and may cause mower to plug
or engine to stall. They also may be slippery to walk
on and could cause you to slip and fall.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
•
Wet grass or leaves can cause you to slip
and contact blade.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
•
Blade contact can seriously injure you.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•
Mow only in dry conditions.
•
Set engine speed to fastest position. Maximum
horsepower provides best cutting results.
•
Clean clippings or leaves from underside of
mower deck after each mowing.
•
Keep engine in good running condition. Cutting
and recutting requires more horsepower.
•
Clean air filter more frequently. Cutting and
recutting stirs up more clippings and dust which
clogs the air filter and reduces engine
performance.
Cutting Grass
•
Grass grows at different rates at different times
of the year. In the heat of the summer, it is
generally best to cut grass at the C, D or E
height-of-cut settings. Only about 1/3 of the
grass blade should be cut off. Cutting below the
C setting is not recommended unless grass is
sparse or it is late fall when grass growth begins
to slow down.
•
When cutting grass over six inches tall, you may
want to first mow using the highest height-of-cut
setting and a slower walking speed; then mow
again at a lower setting for best lawn appearance.
If grass is too long and leaves clumps on top of
lawn, mower may plug and cause engine to stall.
•
Alternate mowing direction. This helps disperse
clippings over lawn for even fertilization.
If the finished cut lawn appearance is unsatisfactory,
try one or more of the following:
