Using Your Mower
Are the blades making contact? While your mower’s cutting system was
precision-set during assembly, it is possible that some slippage may occur
during shipping, handling and operation. To check if the cutting gap is set
properly, refer to Checking Cutting Performance on page 11.
Problem: Turning the mower is difficult or requires
stooping.
Is the handle height set properly? If the adjustable handle is set too low,
turning your mower may require you to stoop over. If this happens, refer to
Adjusting Your Mower on page 8 for instructions on raising the handle.
Problem: The mower makes a scraping or
tinging noise.
Is the cutting reel or stationary blade damaged? While your mower has
hardened blades, blade damage can still occur if rocks, concrete edges or
other hard debris are struck. If this happens, the damaged area of the blade
may cause a high-pitched sound when it passes the other blade. See Care
and Maintenance on page 16 for additional details.
Are the blades making contact? While your mower’s cutting system was
precision-set during assembly, it is possible that some slippage may occur
during shipping, handling and operation. To check if the cutting gap is set
properly, refer to Checking Cutting Performance on page 11.
Problem: The mower leaves some uncut blades
of grass.
Is your grass very long or are tall weeds present? If your grass is over 6"
long or tall weeds are present, they may be knocked down by the front of the
mower. If this happens, either pull these long stragglers by hand or make a
second mowing pass to cut them. To prevent this entirely, never let your grass
grow longer than 6".
Does the front of the mower rise off the ground? If the adjustable handle is
set too high, the force you exert when pushing the mower may cause the front
wheels to rise up off the ground, resulting in uneven cutting. If this happens,
refer to Adjusting Your Mower on page 8.
Are the blades set improperly? While your mower’s cutting system was
precision-set during assembly, it is possible that some slippage may occur
during shipping, handling and operation. To check if the cutting system is set
properly, refer to Checking Cutting Performance on page 10.
Problem: The mower is hard to push or the reel
doesn’t spin freely.
Are you trying to cut too much grass? The mower may become hard to
push or even clog if the cut height is set too low for the length of the grass
being cut. If this is the case, readjust the cut height so that you are cutting no
more than 1/3 of the length of the grass.
Is the mower awkward to push? If the adjustable handle is set too high, it may
feel awkward while pushing. If this happens, refer to Adjusting Your Mower on
page 8 for instructions on lowering the handle.
Is the drive train obstructed? If you find that your mower becomes harder to
push, examine the ends of the reel and the wheels to see if grass clippings or
other debris have caused a jam. If an obstruction is present, clear it with a long
bristled brush or soft tool.
Troubleshooting

To maximize cutting power, walk briskly. The cutting power of the
InertiaDrive
™
Reel increases with the speed of the mower. This means
that the faster you walk, the better your mower will cut. While it is not
necessary to run, if you’re used to mowing at a very leisurely pace, try
walking just a little more quickly.
For efficient mowing, cut your lawn in long, straight lines. Since
reel mowers only cut grass when they are moving, lay out your mowing
pattern to maximize the amount of long, straight runs and minimize
starts and stops. Overlapping wheel tracks will ensure a complete and
uniform cut.
Precut a turnaround zone to ease turns against obstructions. If any
mowing run ends against an obstruction (garden, foundation, fence,
etc.), begin by making one or two mowing passes along the obstruction
to provide a turnaround zone.
