OPERATION
MOWING TIPS
NOTE: A sharp blade will greatly enhance the performance of the mower, especially when cutting high grass. Be sure to
check the blade and to sharpen it at least once per year, as described in the Maintenance section.
• Verify that the lawn is free of stones, sticks, wires, and other objects that could damage the blades or the motor. These
objects could be accidentally thrown by the mower in any direction, and could cause serious personal injury to the
operator and to others. In order to prevent electric shock, do not operate the mower in damp or wet conditions.
• Do not mow in circles. Travel back and forth across the lawn.
• When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the
clippings.
• For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be
approximately 1 1/2 to 2" (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and between 2" to 3 1/4" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) long during hot
months. If there is growth, the lawn should be cut in the fall.
MULCHING TIPS
NOTE: INSPECT THE AREA WHERE THE MOWER IS TO BE USED, AND REMOVE ALL STONES, STICKS, WIRE,
BONES, AND OTHER DEBRIS THAT MIGHT BE THROWN BY THE ROTATING BLADE.
• Release the bail lever to turn the mower OFF when crossing any graveled area (stones can be thrown by the blade).
• Set mower to the highest cutting height when mowing on uneven ground or in tall weeds.
• For effective mulching, do not cut wet grass, because it tends to stick to the underside of the deck, preventing proper
mulching of grass clippings. New or thick grass may require a narrower cut. The ground speed should be adjusted to the
condition of the lawn. If mowing has been delayed and the grass has been allowed to grow longer than 4" (10 cm), mow
the lawn twice in order to reduce the grass height to a maximum of 3 1/4" (8.3 cm).
• Walk at a steady pace. Overlap the cutting rows. Do not let the grass get too tall. If the grass gets too long, start at the
highest cutting position and work down to the desired cutting height.
W A R N I N G
If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor and remove the battery. Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage. Repair
any damage before operating the mower. Excessive vibration of the mower during operation is an indication of damage.
Thoroughly inspect the mower and repair any damage before operating the mower.
