  If your MTD Lawn Mower isn't mulching grass effectively (if equipped): Place the throttle control in the FAST position. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet; wait until it's drier. Mow once at a high cutting height, then mow again at the desired height, or make a narrower cutting swath. Sharpen or replace the blade.
