Cut no more than 1/3 the length of the grass. The recommended cut for mowing is 1/3 the
length of the grass. Ground speed will need to be adjusted so the clippings can be dispersed
evenly into the lawn. When mowing long grass you may have to cut the lawn in two passes,
lowering the blade another 1/3 of the length for the second cut and perhaps cutting in a
different pattern than was used the first time. Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will also
help to clean up any stray clippings left on the lawn. Clean underside of deck.
Be certain to clean the underside of the cutting deck after each use to avoid a build-up of
grass, which would prevent proper mulching. Mowing leaves. The mowing of leaves can also
be beneficial to your lawn. When mowing leaves make sure they are dry and are not laying too
thick on the lawn.

WARNING: if you strike a foreign object, stop the engine and wait until

mower for any damage and repair the damage before restarting and
operating the mower. Extensive vibration of the mower during operation is
an indication of damage. The unit should be promptly inspected and
repaired.
11 BLADE
The blade is made of pressed steel. It will be necessary to reshape it frequently(with a grind
wheel).
Ensure that it is always balanced (an unbalanced blade will cause dangerous vibrations). To
check for balance, insert a round rod through the central hole and support the blade
horizontally. A balance blade will remain horizontal. If the blade is not balanced the heavy end
will rotate downwards. Reshape the heavy end until the blade is currently balanced. To
remove the blade, unscrew the blade screw.
Check the conditions of the fan, and replace any parts, which are damaged.
When reassembling, make sure that the cutting edges face in the direction of the motor
rotation. The blade screw must be torque to 25NM.
