build up on the mower deck or contact the engine exhaust
presenting a potential fire hazard.
7-6 FOR THE BEST RESULTS WHEN
MOWING
"
Clear lawn of debris. Be sure that the lawn is clear of
stones, sticks, wire or other foreign objects which could be
accidentally thrown out by the mower in any direction and
cause serious personal injury to the operator and others
as well as damage to property and surrounding objects.
Do not cut wet grass. For effective mowing do not cut wet
grass because it tends to stick to the underside of the
deck preventing proper mowing of the grass clippings. Cut
no more than 1/3 the length of the grass. The
recommended cut for mowing is 1/3 the length of the
grass. Ground speed will need to be adjusted so the
clippings can be dispersed evenly into the lawn. For
especially heavy cutting in thick grass it may be
necessary to use one of the slowest speeds in order to get
a clean well mowed cut. When mowing long grass you
may have to cut the lawn in two passes, lowering the
blade another 1/3 of the length for the second cut and
perhaps cutting in a different pattern than was used the
first time. Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will
also help to clean up any stray clippings left on the lawn.
The mower should always be operated at full throttle to
get the best cut and allow it to do the most effective job of
mowing. Clean underside of deck. Be certain to clean the
underside of the cutting deck after each use to avoid a
