Alternate mowing methods
Proper mulching
Mulching consists of a mower deck which cuts and recuts
clippings into tiny particles and which then blows them down
INTO the lawn. These tiny particles decompose rapidly into
by-products your lawn can use. UNDER PROPER
CONDITIONS, your mulching mower will virtually eliminate
noticeable clippings on the lawn surface.
NOTE: When mulching under heavy cutting conditions, a
rumbling sound may be present and is normal.
Mulching requires excellent mowing conditions
Mulching mowers cannot function properly if the grass is wet,
or if the grass is simply to high to cut. Even more than normal
mowing, mulching requires that the grass be dry and the the
appropriate amount is cut.
Do not use the mower as a mulching mower during the first
two or three mowings in the spring. The long grass blades,
quick growth, and often wetter conditions are more suitable
for broadcasting (side-discharging) or grass bagging operation.
