To get a good cutting result
•
Do not cut a wet lawn. Wet grass can give a bad
cutting result.
•
Start with a high cutting height and decrease it
gradually.
•
Cut with blades that rotate at high speed (highest
permitted engine speed, see
28 ). Move the product forward at low speed. If the
grass is not too high and thick, you can get a good
cutting result also at a higher speed.
•
To get the best cutting result, cut the grass
frequently and use the BioClip function.
