Cutting Leaves
•
•
Slow down your mowing speed if the mower does
not cut the leaves finely enough.
•
After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn
shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need
to make more than one pass over the leaves.
If you mow over oak leaves, you can add lime to
the grass in the spring to reduce the acidity of the
leaves.
•
If there are more than 5 inches (13 cm) of leaves
on the lawn, set the front cutting height one or
two notches higher than the rear cutting height.
Maintenance
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the mower by standing in the operating position.
