OPERATING THE MOWER
Without Grass Collection
Remove the grassbag and operate the mower with the rear deflector in the closed position.
Heavy Growth
Areas of heavy growth should be mown without collecting the clip- pings. If collection is required, first mow the area without the grass- bag at the maximum height of cut setting. Allow the grass clippings to dry out and then mow the area at the maximum height of cut setting with the grassbag fitted. Reduce the height of cut and mow the area again as necessary until the required finish is obtained.

To prevent grass damage do not remove more than one third of grass height in one cut.
Friction Disc
The cutterblade is driven by the engine via a friction disc to help pre- vent damage occurring to the engine crankshaft and cutting mecha- nism when a hidden obstruction or overload is encountered.
Always stop the engine when a hidden obstruction or excessive vibra- tion is encountered. Disconnect the spark plug lead and examine the cutting mechanism. ALWAYS replace a damaged cutterblade - refer to “Maintenance”.
