Removing the Grass Bag
1. Shut off the engine and wait for all moving parts
to stop.
2. Lift up the grass bag up and away from the
handle.
Note:
Tilt the grass bag slightly backward to
prevent the collected grass clippings from falling
out.
Rear-Discharging the
Clippings
Use the rear discharge for cutting very tall grass.
Note:
If the grass bag is on the machine, remove
it before rear-discharging the clippings; refer
to
Removing the Grass Bag (page 13) . The
bag-on-demand lever should be in the
BAGGING
position as shown in Figure 17 .
WARNING
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can
result in serious personal injury.
Shut off the engine and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
Operating Tips
General Mowing Tips
•
Inspect the area where you will use the machine
and remove all objects that the machine could
throw.
•
Avoid striking solid objects with the blade. Never
deliberately mow over any object.
•
If the machine strikes an object or starts to vibrate,
immediately shut off the engine, remove the key
(if equipped), disconnect the wire from the spark
plug, and examine the machine for damage.
•
For best performance, install a new blade before
the cutting season begins.
•
Replace the blade when necessary with a Toro
replacement blade.
Cutting Grass
•
Cut only about a third of the grass blade at a time.
Do not cut below 51 mm (2 inches) unless the
grass is sparse or it is late fall when grass growth
begins to slow down.
•
When cutting grass over 15 cm (6 inches) tall,
mow at the highest cutting height setting and walk
slower; then mow again at a lower setting for the
best lawn appearance. If the grass is too long, the
machine may plug and cause the engine to stall.
•
Wet grass and leaves tend to clump on the yard
and can cause the machine to plug or the engine
to stall. Avoid mowing in wet conditions.
•
Be aware of a potential fire hazard in very dry
conditions, follow all local fire warnings, and keep
the machine free of dry grass and leaf debris.
•
Alternate the mowing direction. This helps
disperse the clippings over the lawn for even
fertilization.
•
If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory,
try 1 or more of the following:
– Replace the blade or have it sharpened.
– Walk at a slower pace while mowing.
– Raise the cutting height on your machine.
– Cut the grass more frequently.
– Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full
swath with each pass.
Cutting Leaves
•
After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn
shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need
to make more than a single pass over the leaves.
•
If there are more than 13 cm (5 inches) of leaves
on the lawn, mow at a higher cutting height and
then again at the desired cutting height.
•
Slow down your mowing speed if the machine
does not cut the leaves finely enough.
After Operation
After Operation Safety
General Safety
•
Always shut off the machine, wait for all moving
parts to stop, and allow the machine to cool before
adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing it.
•
Clean grass and debris from the machine to help
prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spills.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such
as on a water heater or on other appliances.
Hauling Safety
•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine.
•
Secure the machine from rolling.
