8. mOwING TIPS
NOTE: 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 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 bag is used during the fast
growing season, the grass may tend to clog
up at the discharge opening. Release switch
lever to turn mower "OFF" and remove
the safety key. Remove the grass 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 bag.
5) If mower should start to vibrate abnormally,
release switch lever to turn mower "OFF"
and remove 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.
9. 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
Cordless self-propelled lawn mower
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 inch 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.
NOTE: The motor is protected by a safety
cut out which is activated when the
blade becomes jammed or if the motor
is overloaded. The safety cut out will
only reset when the switch lever 2 is
released. Clear any obstruction and
wait for a few minutes for the safety
cut out to reset before continuing to
use the mower. At this time do not
operate the switch lever 2 as this will
prolong the reset time of the safety
cut out. If the mower cuts out again
increase the height of cut to reduce
the load on the motor.
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 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
