Mowing and Lawn Care Tips■For best results, mow at a steady pace. If you try to w alk too quickly, especially in tall grass, the
quality of the cut ma y not be uniform.
■Mow as often as needed so that you are onl y cutting 1 to 2 inches of grass eac h mowing
session. Trying to cut mor e than 2 inches will drastically reduce the charge li fe of the ba ttery.
(For example , if you want to cut 5-inch tall grass down to 2 inches, cut 1½ inches off one day,
then cut it again four or five days later.)
■For the healthiest lawn, avoid removing more than one third of the leaf blade during an y one
mowing session. When more than one third of the blade is removed, the g rass plant produces
less food for itself and ther efore becomes weaker and more susce ptible to disease and insect
damage.
■Keep your mower b lade sharp! A sharp mower blade cuts the grass quickly and cleanl y,using
less of the mo wer’s power, which conserves battery life. For best results, inspect the blade often
and have an ext ra, sharp blade ready to install as a replacement while the dull b lade is being
sharpened.
■Mow across slopes; never up and down.
