  Clinton MorrisAug 31, 2025
  If your Craftsman Lawn Mower isn't mulching grass effectively, check the following: * Ensure the engine speed isn't too low. Place the throttle in the FAST (rabbit) position. * Avoid mulching when the grass is wet. * If the grass is excessively high, mow once at a high cutting height, then mow again at the desired height, or make a narrower cutting swath. * A dull blade can also prevent mulching. Sharpen or replace the blade.
