General information
When adjusting the cutting height
and driving speed, ensure that the
machine is not overloaded.
Depending on the length, type,
and dampness of the grass it may
become necessary to adjust the
cutting height and appliance speed
for the optimum grass catcher
performance.
If blockages occur, reduce the
driving speed and increase the
cutting height.
The best way to mow

grass is thrown out sideways into
the middle.
Never allow the grass to grow too

long
Never cut the grass too low.

