Moving Machine By Hand - Husqvarna W548 Manual Del Operador

OPERATION
• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing
often. The lawn becomes more even and the
grass clippings more equally distributed over
the mown area. The total time taken is not
increased as a higher operating speed can be
used without poor mowing results.
• Do not mow wet lawns. The mowing result is
poorer because the wheels sink into the soft
lawn, clumps build, and grass clippings fasten
under the cowling.
• When mowing large areas, start by turning to
the right so that clippings will discharge away
from shrubs, fences, driveways, etc. After one
or two rounds, mow in the opposite direction
making left hand turns until finished.
• Clean the mower deck underside with water
after each use. Make sure the mower is cooled
and the engine is off.
• Use compressed air to clean top surface of the
deck. Do not flood water on the top surface,
engine and electrical components.
