Operating Tips
Maximizing Cutting Efficiency
For best mowing and maximum air circulation, operate
the engine at the fast throttle position. Air is required to
thoroughly cut grass clippings, so do not set the height of
cut so low as to totally surround the mower by uncut grass.
Always try to have one side of the mower free from uncut
grass, which allows air to be drawn into the mower.
Cutting a Lawn for the First Time
Cut grass slightly longer than normal to ensure the cutting
height of the mower does not scalp any uneven ground.
However, the cutting height used in the past is generally the
best one to use. When cutting grass longer than six inches tall,
you may want to cut the lawn twice to ensure an acceptable
quality of cut.
Cutting 1/3 of the Grass Blade
It is best to cut only about 1/3 of the grass blade. Cutting
more than that is not recommended unless grass is sparse, or
it is late fall when grass grows more slowly.
