SIDE DISCHARGE OF THE CLIPPINGS:
In order to achieve optimum performance when
Side discharging the grass clippings, please read
and follow the tips listed below. Additional
information can be found in the troubleshooting
guide.
CAUTION
Be sure that the deflector is properly
installed on the discharge chute.
1. Set engine speed control to the wide open or
full setting.
2. Do Not Attempt To Cut Grass When It Is Wet.
Wet grass will clog the underside of the deck
and discharge area.
3. If the grass is tall, place the mower deck cut
height lever in the top or second notch.
“Initially” overlap cutting swaths instead of a
full swath with each pass. Some applications
may require a second cutting.
4. Keep The Underside Of The Mower Deck Clean.
Frequent removal of dried grass and dirt will
allow the clippings to discharge correctly.
5. Maintain Sharp Blade(s) Throughout The
Cutting Season.
