OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
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. (Disengage blade
and stop engine prior to clearing grass from either
the discharge chute or grass catcher components.)
5. Maintain Sharp Blade(s) Throughout The Cutting
Season.
