OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

MOWING WITH A MULCHING ATTACHMENT:

Mulching or recycling the grass clippings requires a totally different mowing approach than would be normal when side discharging or bagging the grass. There may be instances or conditions where it is not possible to hide all the recycled or mulched clippings.

In order to achieve the best results, please read and follow the mulching tips listed below:

1.Read and follow the installation instructions that are included with your mulcher.

2.Set the engine speed control to the wide open or full setting.

3.Place the mower deck cut height selector in either the top or second notch. Never cut more than 3/4” to 1” off the grass at any one time. Attempting to cut more grass will result in the deck plugging and cause the engine to stall.

4.It may be necessary to cut the lawn twice to achieve acceptable mulching performance especially on first cuttings or if the lawn is heavily fertilized.

5.Do not attempt to cut grass when it is wet. Mulching performance will be very poor in wet grass conditions.

6.Maintain sharp blades throughout the cutting season. This is very important. Optimal mulching performance cannot be obtained with a dull or nicked up blade.
