Mulching with the mulching insert [4757
Li SP, 4757 Li VS] (12, 13)
When mulching, the cuttings are not collected but
remain on the lawn. The mulch protects the
ground from drying out and supplies it with nutri-
ents. The best results are achieved through regu-
larly cutting back by approx. 2 cm. Only new
grass with soft leaf tissue rots quickly.
■
Grass height before mulching: max. 8 cm
■
Grass height after mulching: min. 4 cm
NOTE
Adjust the stepping speed of the mulch-
ing, do not go too quickly.
