Never work with blades while the engine is running
or deck clutch switch is engaged (on).
Always place the deck clutch switch in the
disengaged position, place park brake lever in the
engaged park brake position, turn the engine off
and disconnect the negative battery cable.
Block the mower up when you must work under it.
Wear gloves when handling blades.
Always check for blade damage if the mower
strikes a rock, branch or other foreign object
during mowing!
When mowing a lawn for the first time cut grass slightly
longer than normal to avoid scalping uneven terrain. When
cutting grass taller than six inches, you may want to mow the
lawn twice to achieve a better quality of cut.
During normal mowing cut off only about 1/3 of the grass
blade.
Alternate the mowing direction to keep the grass growing
straight and for better dispersion of the clippings.
Remember, grass grows at different rates at different
times of the year. Mow more often in the early spring to
maintain the same cutting height. As the growth rate slows
in midsummer, mow less frequently. If you cannot mow at a
regular interval, mow at a high cutting height; then mow
again two days later at a lower cutting height.
Raise the cutting height of the mower if the cutting width
of the mower is wider than the previous mower. This ensures
that uneven turf is not cut too short.
Raise the cutting height of the mower if the grass is
slightly taller than normal or if it contains a high degree of
moisture. Then mow it again with the cutting height set
lower.
If the machine's forward motion must be stopped while
mowing, a clump of grass clippings may drop onto your lawn.
To avoid this, move onto a previously cut area with the
blades engaged.
Never direct the discharge of material from the
mower deck toward bystanders. Do not operate
the mower without the rear discharge rubber flaps
or power unit deflector in place. Figure 3-10 &

Never attempt to make any adjustments to the
mower deck while the engine is running or with the
deck drive clutch engaged. Mower blades cannot
be seen and are located very close to the deck
housing. Fingers and toes can be cut off instantly.
