Mowing
WARNING
To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury,
keep bystanders, helpers, children and pets at least 75
feet (23 meters) from the tractor while it is in operation.
Keep bystanders, children and pets inside during
operation. Stop tractor if anyone enters the area.
Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of materials
toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also,
avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction
which may cause discharged material to ricochet back
toward the operator.
The following information will be helpful when using the cutting
deck with your tractor:
1. Do not mow or drive at high ground speed, especially if a
mulch kit or grass collector is installed.
2. For best results it is recommended that the first two laps be
cut clockwise with the discharge facing towards the center
of your lawn. After the first two laps, reverse the direction to
discharge to the outside for the balance of cutting. This will
give a better appearance to the lawn.
3. Do not cut the grass too short. Short grass invites weed
growth and yellows quickly in dry weather.
4. Under heavier conditions it may be necessary to go back over
the cut area a second time to get a clean cut.
5. Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds and grass
taller than 10” (25.4 cm). Your tractor is designed to mow
lawns, NOT clear brush.
