Operating Tips

Fast Throttle Setting/Ground
Speed
To maintain enough power for the machine and deck
while mowing, operate the engine at the F
position and adjust your ground speed for conditions.
Decrease the ground speed as the load on the cutting
blades increase; increase the ground speed as the
load on the blades decrease.
Mowing Direction
Alternate mowing direction to avoid making ruts in
the turf over time. This also helps disperse clippings,
which enhances decomposition and fertilization.
Cutting Speed
To improve cut quality, use a slower ground speed
in certain conditions.
Avoid Cutting Too Low
If the cutting width of the mower is wider than the
mower you previously used, raise the cutting height to
ensure that uneven turf is not cut too short.
Select the Proper Height-of-Cut
Setting
Remove approximately 25 mm (1 inch) or no
more than 1/3 of the grass blade when cutting. In
exceptionally lush and dense grass, you may have to
slow down the forward speed and/or raise the height
of cut to the next higher setting.
Important:
If you are cutting more than 1/3 of the
grass blade off or mowing in sparse long grass or
dry conditions, then use flat sail blades to reduce
airborne chaff, debris, and deck-drive component
strain.
Cutting Long Grass
If the grass ever grows slightly longer than normal,
or if it contains a high degree of moisture, raise the
cutting height higher than usual and cut the grass at
this setting. Then cut the grass again using the lower,
normal setting.
Keeping the Mower Clean
Clean clippings and dirt from the underside of the
mower after each use. If grass and dirt build up
inside the mower, cutting quality eventually becomes
unsatisfactory.
