Hayter Mowers Motif 434E - Manual (Page 16)

OPERATING THE MOWER
To prevent accidents thoroughly inspect the area and remove all
objects which when contacted by the cutterblade could become
dangerous projectiles. Inspect the area for hidden obstructions
which when contacted by the cutterblade could risk health and
safety or result in damage to the mower. Remember the location of
these obstructions and ensure that you mow around them.
Lift the grassbag through the handlebar and close the rear deflector to
rest against the rear of the mower.
To empty the grassbag, pour out the grass clippings and shake the
grassbag vigorously to clean the airways. Good grass collection
depends on good air flow through the grassbag. When collecting grass
clippings it is important that the grassbag is emptied regularly to pre-
vent blockages and engine overloading.
Remove the grassbag and operate the mower with the rear deflector in
the closed position.
To prevent engine overloading and blockages be prepared to make two
cuts in areas of heavy growth. If collection is required, first mow the
area at the maximum height of cut setting with the grassbag fitted.
Reduce the height of cut and mow the area again as necessary until the
required finish is obtained.
To prevent damage to your lawn do not remove more than one third of
grass height in one cut.
