GENERAL MOWING TIPS
The run time of the battery depends on the
condition, length, and density of the grass.
Adjust the cutting height of the lawnmower to
suit the current condition of the lawn.
For best performance, always cut off one-
■
third or less of the total height of the grass.
When cutting long grass, reduce walking

speed to allow for more effective cutting
and a proper discharge of the clippings.
Do not cut wet grass; it will stick to the
■
underside of the deck and prevent proper
collection or discharge of grass clippings.
New or thick grass may require a higher
■
cutting height.
To collect the grass cuttings for disposal,
■
remove the mulching plug and fit the
grass catcher, making sure that the
grass discharge chute cover is properly
closed. Empty the grass catcher regularly;
otherwise, the discharge chute will become
blocked with grass cuttings.
If you are making a light cut and wish
■
for the grass cuttings to remain on the
lawn, fit the mulching plug, and close the
grass discharge chute cover to cover the
discharge opening. It is not necessary to fit
the grass catcher in this case.
The product is designed to operate and cut
■
most effectively when moving forwards.
A higher cutting height extends the run
■
time of the battery.

■
