5.7 ADVICE ON HOW TO OBTAIN A GOOD CUT

1. To keep a lawn green and soft with a good appearance it should be cut regu-
larly and without damaging the grass.
2. It is always better to cut the grass when dry.
3. The blades must be in good condition and well sharpened so that the grass is
cut straight without any ragged edge that leads to yellowing at the ends.
4. The engine must run at full speed, both to ensure a sharp cut of the grass and
to get the necessary thrust to push the cuttings through the collector channel.
5. The frequency of mowing should be in relation to the rate of growth of the
grass, which should not be left to grow too much between one cut and the next.
6. During hot and dry periods, the grass should be cut a little higher to prevent
the ground from drying out.
7. If the grass is very tall, it should be cut twice in a twenty-four hour period. The
first time with the blades at maximum height, possibly reducing the cutting width,
and the second cut at the height wanted.
8. The appearance of the lawn will improve if
you alternate the cutting in both directions.
9. If the collector system tends to get blocked
with grass, you should reduce the forward
speed since this may be too high for the condi-
tion of the grass. If the problem persists, the
probable causes are either badly sharpened
blades or deformed wings.
10. Be very careful when mowing near bushes or kerbs since these could distort
the horizontal position of the cutting deck, and damage its edge as well as the
blades.
