CAUTION! Do not overload your mower.
Mowing long thick grass may cause the motor speed to
drop. You will hear a change in the motor sound. If the
motor speed drops, you may overload your lawnmower
which may cause damage. When mowing in long thick
grass, a rst cut with the cutting height set higher will help
reduce the load. See “Adjusting the Cutting Height”.
GRASSBOX
For optimum performance your product is designed to be
used with the grassbox tted.

stopped rotating before emptying the grassbox.
1. Lift the grassbox lid.
2. Lift the grassbox off the product and empty.

Failure to t the grassbox and lid correctly will cause poor
