MULCHING MOWING TIPS
While mulching, your new mower is
designed to cut the grass clippings into small
pieces and distribute them back onto the
lawn. Under normal conditions, the mulched
grasses will biodegrade quickly to provide
nutrients to the lawn.
Please review the following
recommendations for optimum mulching
performance.
1. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet
from rain or dew. Wet grass may
form clumps which interfere with the
mulching action and reduce runtime.
The best time to mow grass is in the late
afternoon when the grass is dry and the
newly cut area will not be exposed to
direct sunlight.
2. For best mulching performance, set
the cutting height to remove about one
third of the grass blade length, ideally
no more than 1 1/2” (3.1 cm) in. at one
time. If the lawn is overgrown, it may be
necessary to increase the cut height to
reduce the pushing effort and prevent
overloading the motor. For extremely
heavy mulching, it is advisable to rst
cut at a high cut height setting, and then
re-cut to the nal cut height. Otherwise,
make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
3. For best performance, keep the mower
housing free of built-up grass. From
time to time turn off mower and wait for
the blade to come to a complete stop.
Using an object such as a stick, wipe out
any accumulation of grass in the blade
area. Be careful of the sharp edges of
the blade. Clean often in wet, new grass,
and always after every use.
4. Certain types of grass or grass
conditions may require that an area
be mulched a second time to fully
disperse the grass throughout the lawn.
If cutting a second time, it is advisable
to cut perpendicular (across) the rst
cut pattern. DO NOT CHANGE CUT
PATTERN IN ANY WAY THAT WOULD
CAUSE MOWING DOWN A HILL.
5. Change your cutting pattern from week
to week. This will help prevent matting
and graining of the lawn.
!
CAUTION: Do not attempt to unclog the
blade chamber by dropping or tapping
the mower on the ground. This can damage
the unit. Keep hands clear of blade when
cleaning.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Stop the mower and unplug
the lawn mower before performing any
maintenance.
NOTE: To ensure long and reliable
service, perform the following maintenance
procedures regularly. Check for obvious
defects such as a loose, dislodged or a
damaged blade, loose ttings, and worn
or damaged components. Check that the
covers and guards are all undamaged and
are correctly attached to mower. Carry
out any necessary maintenance or repairs
before operating mower. If the mower should
happen to fail despite regular maintenance,
please call our customer helpline for advice
