      Jessica YoungAug 5, 2025
      If the grass isn't dispersing evenly while using your Ariens Lawn Mower, it might be because too much grass is being removed per cutting. Try raising the cutting height. Also, ensure the grass is dry, as wet grass can clump. Lastly, reduce your mowing speed, especially if you have a self-propelled model.
