MOWING
TIPS
. Tire
chains
cannot
be used
when
the
mower housing
is attached
to tractor.
• Mower should be properly
leveled for best
mowing
performance_
See "TO LEVEL
MOWER
HOUSING"
in the Service
and
Adjustments
section
of this manual.
• The
left hand side of mower
should
be
used for trimming.
• Drive so that clippings are discharged
onto
the area that has already
been cut. Have
the cut area to the right of the tractor. This
will result in a more
even distribution
of
clippings
and more uniform
cutting,
• When mowing large areas, start byturning
to the right so that clippings
wil! discharge
away
from
shrubs,
fences,
driveways,
etc. After one or two rounds,
mow in the
opposite
direction
making left hand turns
until finished.
f
• If grass
is extremely
tall, it should
be
mowed twice to reduce load and possible
fire hazard
from dried
clippings.
Make
first cut relatively
high; the second to the
desired
heighL
• Do not mow grass when
it is wet.
Wet
grass will plug mower and leave undesir-
able clumps.
Allow
grass to dry before
mowing.
• Always
operate
engine
at full throttle
when
mowing
to
ensure
better
mow_
ing performance
and proper
discharge
of material
Regulate
ground
speed
by
selecting
a low enough speed to give the
mower cutting performance
as well as the
quality of cut desired.
• When
operating
attachments,
select
a
ground speed that will suit the terrain and
give best performance
of the attachment
being used.
