Mowing and Bagging Tips
1.For a lawn to look better, check the cutting level of the mower housing. See “Level the Mower Housing”.
2.For the mower housing to cut level, make sure the tires have the correct amount of air pressure. The correct air pressure is shown on the side of the tires.
3.Every time you use the unit, check the blade. If the blade is bent or damaged, immediately replace the blade. Also, make sure the nut for the blade is tight.
4.Keep the blade(s) sharpened. Worn blades will cause the ends of the grass to turn brown.
5.If the grass is very high, cut two times to decrease the load on the engine. First cut with the mower housing in the highest position and then lower the mower housing for the second cut.
6.Operate the engine with the throttle in FAST position and the shift level in first or second gear.
7.For better cutting performance and a quality cut, mow with the shift lever in one of the slower speeds.
8.After each use, clean the bottom and top of the mower housing for better performance. Also, a clean mower housing will help prevent a fire.
