How to Mow

1.Start mowing the edge of the lawn nearest to the power point so the cable is laid out on the lawn you have already cut.

2.Mow twice a week during the growing season, your lawn will suffer if more than a third of its length is cut at one time and this may also result in poor collection.

Do Not Overload Your Mower: Mowing long thick grass may cause the motor speed to drop, you will hear a change in the motor sound. If the motor speed drops you may overload your lawnmower which may cause damage. When mowing in long thick grass a first cut with the cutting height set higher will help reduce the load. See Cutting Height Adjustment.
