If grass
is extremely
tall, it should
be
mowed twice to reduce load and possible
fire hazard from dried clippings.
Make
first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow
grass when
it is wet.
Wet
grass will plug mower and leave undesir-
able clumps.
Allow grass to dry before
mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle
when
mowing
to assure
better
mow-
ing performance and proper discharge
of material.
Regulate ground speed by
selecting a low enough gear to give the
mower cutting performance as well as the
quality of cut desired.
When
operating attachments,
select a
ground speed that will suit the terrain and
give best performance of the attachment
being used.
