Note: To prevent pivoting directly on the tire tread,
ensure both wheels maintain a slight forward motion.
7.5.4 PRACTICE TURNING IN PLACE
For a "zero-turn" maneuver, gradually move one
steering control lever forward from neutral while moving
the other handle back from neutral simultaneously.
Practice this several times.
Note: Adjusting the extent of pulling each steering
control lever forward or back alters the turning "pivot
point."
7.5.5 ADVANCED DRIVING
Your zero-turn mower's exceptional feature of turning in
place allows you to pivot at the row's end instead of
stopping and performing a Y-turn before commencing a
new row.
Here's how to execute a left end-of-row zero turn:
1. Gradually decelerate at the row's end.
2. Slightly push the RIGHT steering control lever
forward while moving the LEFT steering control
lever back to its center and then slightly back.
3. Resume forward mowing.
By adopting this approach, the mower turns left and
slightly overlaps the recently cut row, eliminating the
necessity to backtrack and recut any missed grass.

MOWING
Select a smooth, level area to mow. Be cautious of
trees, fences, and slopes. Mow in straight lines, slightly
overlapping. Occasionally change patterns to prevent
flat spots. For a professional touch, mow across once
and then go perpendicular on the next round.
English
When mowing expansive spaces, begin by turning
towards the right to ensure that clippings are directed
away from shrubs, fences, driveways, and other areas.
After completing one or two rounds, mow in a back-and-
forth pattern across the lawn, pivoting at the edges of
the previously mowed grass.

MOWING PATTERNS
7.7.1 SIDE-DISCHARGING
Side-discharging is a mowing technique that efficiently
processes a larger volume of grass in a single pass.
This method involves expelling grass clippings to the
side of the mower deck and dispersing them across
the lawn. The side-discharge deck design allows for
effective cutting even in high grass conditions, making
it ideal for larger areas where expedited mowing is
essential. For optimal mowing, set blade speed to
the highest level. If the motor slows, reduce drive
speed. Slower drive speed boosts blade efficiency
and prevents cutting issues. Choose side-discharging
mowing for 3-5 inch grass. Avoid cutting more than 1
inch at once.
7.7.2 MULCHING
Mulching offers versatile benefits, finely cutting grass
and returning clippings to the soil. Remember, mulching
works best on dry and moderate-height grass. For
successful mulching, set the blade speed highest and
match it with the slowest driving speed. This ensures
finely cut clippings. When mulching, drive at about half
the speed used for broadcasting.
Optimal Clipping Length
Ideal mulching trims just the top ½ - ¾ inch of grass,
resulting in decomposing clippings. Experiment with
cutting height based on your climate, season, and lawn
thickness. As always, mow thoughtfully and consider
your lawn's unique conditions for the best results.

MOWING RECOMMENDATIONS
Multiple factors impact your mower's grass-cutting
efficiency. Adhering to mowing guidelines enhances
performance and longevity.
