you can mow collecting or mulching the grass. Grass
clippings will be discharged from the rear chute of the
mower and exit below the Safety Flap(11).
9. MOWING TIPS
WARNING: Always inspect area where
mower is to be used and remove all
stones, sticks, wire, metal and other debris
which might be thrown by the rotating blade.
1) Mow across the face of slopes, never up-and-
down. Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes. Do not mow excessively
steep slopes. Always maintain good footing.
2) Release Switch Lever(2) to turn mower “OFF”
when crossing any graveled area (stones can be
thrown by the blade).
3) Set mower at highest cutting height when
mowing in rough ground or in tall weeds.
Removing too much grass at one time can cause
circuit breaker to trip, which stops mower.
4) If a Grass Collection Bag (5) is used during the
fast growing season, the grass may tend to clog
up at the discharge opening. Release Switch
Lever to turn the mower “OFF” and remove the
Safety Key(6). Remove the Grass Collection Bag
and shake the grass down to the back end of the
bag. Also clean out any grass or debris which
may be packed around the discharge opening.
Replace the Grass Collection Bag.
5) If mower should start to vibrate abnormally,
release Switch Lever to turn the mower “OFF”
and remove the Safety Key. Check immediately
for cause. Vibration is a warning of trouble. Do
not operate mower until a service check has been
made.
6.
Always release switch lever to turn mower
“off” and remove safety key when leaving
it unattended even for a short period of
time.
10. MULCHING MOWING TIPS
While mulching, your new mower is designed
to cut the grass clippings into small pieces and
distribute them back into the lawn. Under normal
conditions, the mulched grass will biodegrade quickly
to provide nutrients to the lawn. Please review the
following recommendations for optimum mulching
performance.
1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain or
dew. Wet grass may form clumps which interfere
with the mulching action and reduce runtime. The
best time to mow grass is in the late afternoon
when the grass is dry and the newly cut area will
not be exposed to direct sunlight.
2) For best mulching performance, set the cutting
height to remove about one third of the grass
blade length, ideally no more than 1.5” inches
at one time. If the lawn is overgrown, it may be
necessary to increase the cut height to reduce
the pushing effort and prevent overloading
the motor. For extremely heavy mulching, it is
advisable to first cut at a high cut height setting,
and then re-cut to the final cut height. Otherwise,
make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
3) For best performance, keep the mower housing
free of built-up grass. From time to time turn
off mower and wait for the blade to come to a
complete stop. Then unplug the Safety Key (6)
and turn mower on its side. Using an object such
as a stick, wipe out any accumulation of grass
in the blade area. Be careful of the sharp edges
of the blade. Clean often in wet, new grass, and
always after every use.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions may
require that an area be mulched a second time
to fully disperse the grass throughout the lawn.
If cutting a second time, it is advisable to cut
perpendicular (across) the first cut pattern. DO
NOT CHANGE CUT PATTERN IN ANY WAY THAT
WOULD CAUSE MOWING DOWN AHILL.
5) Change your cutting pattern from week to week.
This will help prevent matting and graining of the
lawn.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Stop the mower and remove
the safety key before removing the grass
bag.
NOTE:
To ensure long and reliable service, perform
the following maintenance procedures regularly.
Check for obvious defects such as a loose, dislodged
or a damaged blade, loose fittings, and worn or
damaged components. Check that the covers and
guards are all undamaged and are correctly attached
to mower. Carry out any necessary maintenance or
repairs before operating mower. If the mower should
happen to fail despite regular maintenance, please
call our customer helpline for advice , 1-866-354-9679.
BLADE (17) SHARPENING
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER
PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT
GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH PROPERLY.
WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE REMOVING,
SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING BLADE. ENSURE
THAT SAFETY KEY IS REMOVED.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season
is usually sufficient under normal circumstances.
Sand causes the blade to dull quickly. If your lawn
has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be
required.
REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE IMMEDIATELY.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE:
1. Make sure blade remains balanced.
2. Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.
3. Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade,
removing equal amounts of material from both
ends.
TO SHARPEN BLADE IN A VISE (See Fig. M)
1. Be sure the Switch Lever(2) is released, the blade
has stopped and the Safety Key(6) removed
before removing the blade.
