Tips on lawn care
Here are some tips to help you keep
your lawn looking healthy and
ensure uniform growth.
Mowing
Lawns consist of various grass
types. Frequent mowing promotes
the growth of grass, resulting in
strong roots and a firm sward.
If you seldom cut the grass, you will
enhance the development of high-
growing types of grass and other
weeds, such as clover, daisies).
The normal height of a lawn is
approx. 4–5 cm.
Only
1
/
3
of the total height should be
mown; therefore cut 7–8 cm long
grass to normal height.
Try not to cut the grass shorter than
4 cm, otherwise the lawn will suffer
during dry periods.
If the grass has grown particularly
high (for example, during a holiday
period), cut it back to its normal
height in several stages.
When mowing, always overlap
the mown swaths slightly.
Mulching (using
the accessories)
The grass is cut into small pieces
(approx. 1 cm) and left to lie
on the lawn. The lawn therefore
retains a lot of nutrients.
For the best possible result the
grass must always be kept short,
see also section “Mowing”. Observe
the following when mulching:
– Do not mow wet grass.
– Never mow more than 2 cm.
–Mow slowly.
– Use the maximum engine speed.
– Clean the cutters regularly.
