MOWING WITH A MULCHING ATTACHMENT
(continued):
7. Keep the underside of the mower deck clean.
Remove all grass and dirt buildup from the
underside of the pan, the baffles and deflectors
after each use. Never, under any circumstances,
should you place hands or feet under the mower
deck or in the chute while blades or impeller are
still turning.
8. Alternate mower direction. This will evenly disperse
the mulched grass clippings over the lawn for even
fertilization.
If the mulching quality of the mower does not seem
to be satisfactory, try one or more of the following
tips:
• Raise the height-of-cut setting on your mower.
• It may be necessary to cut your grass more
frequently.
• Operate the mower at a slower ground speed.
• Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full
swath with each pass.
• Mow across the marginal areas a second time.
• CUT HIGH - MOW OFTEN!
