Mowing Tips

WARNING!

Clear the lawn of stones and other objects that can be thrown out by the blades.

• Localise and mark rocks and other fixed

 

objects in order to avoid collisions.

 

• Begin with a high cutting height and

 

reduce it until the desired mowing result

 

is attained.

 

• The mowing result will be best with a

 

high engine speed (the blades rotate

 

rapidly) and low speed (the rider moves

 

slowly). If the grass is not too long and

 

dense, the driving speed can be

 

increased without noticeably

 

depreciating the mowing result.

 

• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing

 

often. The mowing becomes more even

 

and the grass clippings more evenly

 

distributed over the mown area. The total

time taken is not increased as a higher

Mowing patterns

driving speed can be used without

 

poorer mowing results.

 

Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result is poorer because the wheels sink into the soft lawn, clumps build, and the grass clippings fasten under the cowling.

Hose beneath the mower deck with water after each use. When cleaning, the mower deck shall be raised into the transport position.

When the BioClip deck is used, it is extra important that the mowing interval is not too long.

WARNING!

Never drive the rider on terrain that slopes more than 15°. Mow slopes up and down, never side-to-side. Avoid sudden directional changes.
