3.MOWING AND MULCHING RECOMMENDATIONS
MULCHING
Mulching cuts grass clippings and fallen leaves into fine particles that fall through the turf and decompose quickly. This returns nutrients to the soil and reduces the need for raking, bagging, and disposal.
For best mulching results, mow the lawn frequently, cutting off less than one inch of grass each time. In growing season you will probably need to mow the lawn twice a week.
Heavy layers of leaves may be difficult to mulch. For best results, switch to bagging. Bagged leaves make a good addition to a backyard compost pile.
This mulching kit closes the discharge port in the mower deck which recirculates grass clippings through the special mulching blades. Periodicallycleaning the accumulated grass clippings from the mower deck and tractor before using will help promote clipping recirculation.
