MULCHING MOWING TIPS
When using the mulching plug, your new mower
is designed to cut the grass clippings into small
pieces and distribute them back into the lawn,
using mulching fins located inside the mower
deck.
Under normal conditions, the mulched grass will
biodegrade quickly to provide nutrients to the lawn.
Please review the following recommendations for
optimum mulching performance.
1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet
from rain or dew. Wet grass may form
clumps which interfere with the mulching
action and reduce runtime. The best time
to mow grass is in the late afternoon
when the grass is dry and the newly
cut area will not be exposed to direct
16
sunlight.
2) For best mulching performance, set the
cutting height to remove about one third
of the grass blade length, ideally no
more than 1.5" inches at one time. If the
lawn is overgrown, it may be necessary
to increase the cut height to reduce the
pushing effort and prevent overloading
the motor. For extremely heavy mulching,
it is advisable to first cut at a high cut
height setting, and then re-cut to the final
cut height. Otherwise, make narrower
cuts and mow slowly.
3) For best performance, keep the mower
housing free of built-up grass. From time
to time turn off mower and wait for the
blade to come to a complete stop. Then
unplug the Safety Key(6) and turn mower
on its side. Using an object such as a stick,
wipe out any accumulation of grass in the
blade area. Be careful of the sharp edges
of the blade. Clean often in wet, new
grass, and always after every use.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions
may require that an area be mulched a

regularly. Check for obvious defects such as a
loose, dislodged or a damaged blade, loose
fittings, and worn or damaged components.
Check that the covers and guards are all
undamaged and are correctly attached to mower.
Carry out any necessary maintenance or repairs
before operating mower. If the mower should
happen to fail despite regular maintenance,
please call our customer helpline for advice

BLADE (14) SHARPENING
Keep blade sharp for best mower
performance. A dull blade does not cut grass
cleanly or mulch properly.
Wear proper eye protection while removing,
sharpening, and installing blade. Ensure that
safety key is removed.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing
season is usually sufficient under normal
circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull
quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more
frequent sharpening may be required.
Replace bent or damaged blade immediately.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE:
(See Fig. M)
1. Make sure blade remains balanced.
2. Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.
3. Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of
second time to fully disperse the grass
throughout the lawn. If cutting a second
time, it is advisable to cut perpendicular
(across) the first cut pattern. DO NOT

week. This will help prevent matting and
graining of the lawn.
WARNING: Stop the mower and
remove the Safety Key before
blade to keep it balanced, removing equal
amounts of material from both ends.
