Operating Tips

Cutting a Lawn for the First Time
Cut grass slightly longer than normal to ensure that
g009174
the cutting height of the mower deck 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 15 cm (6 inches) tall,
you may want to cut the lawn twice to ensure an
acceptable quality of cut.
Cutting a Third of the Grass Blade
It is best to cut only about a third of the grass blade or
no more than 2.5 cm (1 inch) off the height. Cutting
more than that is not recommended unless grass is
sparse, or it is late autumn when grass grows more
slowly.
