OPERATING HINTS

Before starting the engine, raise the mower deck into the highest cutting height (lowest notches) or in position to allow maximum pulverizing with minimum of grass being cut. Run engine at top speed and low ground speed for best results. If leaf build-up is high, push down on handles to raise deck above the pile then lower deck slow enough to allow pulverizing without choking the deck with leaves and stalling the engine.

CAUTION: The Snapperizer is not intended for shredding large sticks or tree limbs. The area must be cleared of stones, wire, large sticks or other objects, which could jam the blade and stall the engine. If jamming occurs, and cannot be cleared by rotating blade with recoil starter, DISCONNECT and SECURE SPARK PLUG WIRE, raise deck and manually rotate blade until jamming object can be removed.
