OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

In order to achieve optimum cutting performance, please read and follow the tips listed below.

Additional information can be found in the troubleshooting guide on pages 36-37.

CAUTION

Be sure that deflector is properly installed on the

discharge chute.

 

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

2.Do Not Attempt To Cut Grass When It Is Wet. Wet grass will clog the underside of the deck and discharge area.

3.If the grass is tall, place the mower deck cut height lever in the top or second notch. "Initially" overlap cutting swaths instead of a full swath with each pass. Some applications may require a second cutting.

4.Keep The Underside Of The Mower Deck Clean. Frequent removal of dried grass and dirt will allow the clippings to discharge correctly.

5.Maintain sharp blade(s) throughout the cutting season.

GRASS HEIGHT SUGGESTIONS:

Correct mowing height can reduce weeds and disease by 50% to 80%
