OPERATIONAL TIPS (24/36 VOLT MODELS)
•
Height-of-cut setting - If you are experiencing
problems with the battery running down too fast, try
raising the height-of-cut setting one notch.
•
Grass grows at different rates at different times of
the year. In the heat of summer, it is generally best
to cut grass at the 2-1/2", 3" or 3-1/2" height-of-cut
settings. Only about 1/3 of the grass blade should
be cut off. Cutting below the 2-1/2"setting is not
recommended unless grass is sparse or it is late
fall when grass growth begins to slow down.
General Mulching Tips
Your mower is designed to mulch grass when the
mulch door is completely closed (Figure 25).
•
•
When changing height-of-cut from the established
setting (ex. 2-1/2", 3", or 3-1/2") to a lower height,
the grass may appear ragged or uneven until the
grass adjusts to the new established height-of-cut
and regains its normal appearance.
When cutting grass over six inches tall, you may
want to first mow using the side discharge chute or
try the highest height-of-cut setting and a slower
walking speed; then mow again at a lower setting
for best lawn appearance. If grass is too long and
leaves clumps on top of lawn, mower may plug and
cause motor to stall.
•
Alternate mowing direction. This helps disperse
clippings over lawn for even fertilization.

Follow these instructions whether cutting grass or
leaves for the best cutting results and lawn
appearance:
If the finished cut lawn appearance is unsatisfactory,
try one or more of the following:
•
•
•
•
•
Sharpen the blade.
•
•
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting
season. Periodically file down nicks on blade.
Walk at a slower pace while mowing.
Raise the height-of-cut setting on your mower.
Cut grass more frequently.
Only mow dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and
leaves tend to clump on yard and may cause
mower to plug or motor to stall. They may also be
slippery to walk on and could cause you to slip and
fall.
Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full
swath with each pass.
WARNING
•
Set height-of-cut on front wheels one notch lower
than rear wheels. (Example: set front wheels at 2
inch setting and rear wheels at 2.5 inch setting.)
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Wet grass or leaves can cause you to slip and
contact blade.
•
Cutting Leaves
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Blade contact can seriously injure you.
•
When cutting is complete, always be sure that 50%
of the lawn shows through the cut leaf cover. This
may require one or more passes over the leaves.
•
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•
Mow only in dry conditions.
•
For light leaf coverage, position all wheels at the
same height-of-cut setting.
•
Clean clippings or leaves from underside of mower
deck after each mowing.
