Mowing Tips
The following recommendations will produce the best lawn
cut quality and appearance:
• Keep mower blades sharp. Dull blades will tear grass;
tips of grass will then turn brown.
• Cutting grass too short may kill grass and let weeds
grow easily.
• Adjust cutting height to remove only 1/3 of the grass at a
time.
• Mow grass often. Short grass clippings will decay
quickly.
• Mow with engine at full throttle.
• Adjust travel speed to match mowing conditions:
• Travel at SLOW speed when you mow thick, tall
grass, make sharp turns or trim around objects.
• Travel at MODERATE speed when you mow thin
grass.
• Use a different mowing pattern each time you mow.
Overlap mowing paths 50 to 100 mm (2 to 4 in).
• Drive over ridges and through shallow ditches straight-
on, not at an angle.
• A thick layer of mulched leave can prevent sunlight from
getting to grass and smother it. Taller grass heights allow
mulched leaves to dispense easier in lawn. Mulch leaves
several times if needed.
• Use a thatcher in late spring or summer to pull up dead
grass and aerate ground.
