Operating instructions – Lawnmower with IC engine
Mulching (using the
accessories)
During mowing the grass is cut into
small pieces (approx. 1 cm) and is
left on the ground. A lot of the
nutrients in the cut grass are
retained for the benefit of the lawn.
For the best possible result the
grass must always be kept short,
see also section "Mowing".
Observe the following mulching
instructions:
– Do not mow wet grass.
– Never mow more than 2 cm of
the total grass length.
– Drive slowly.
– Use the maximum engine speed.
– Regularly clean the cutter deck.
