General information

When adjusting the cutting height

and driving speed, ensure that the

machine is not overloaded.

Depending on the length, type, and

dampness of the grass it may

become necessary to adjust the

cutting height and appliance speed

for the optimum grass catcher

performance.

If blockages occur, reduce the

driving speed and increase the

cutting height.

The best way to mow

Cut the first two rounds so the cut

grass is thrown out sideways into

the middle.

 Never allow the grass to grow too

long

 Never cut the grass too low.

 Drive in a straight line.

 Never mow at high speed,

particularly when a mulching kit

or grass catcher is installed.

accessories. Ask your specialised

dealer for details.

Tips on lawn care

Mowing

A lawn is made up of various

different types of grass. If you mow

your lawn frequently, those types of

grass which form strong roots and

a firm turf surface will grow better. 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

of the total

height should be mown; therefore

cut 7–8 cm long grass to normal

height.

Preferably do not cut the lawn

shorter than 4 cm, otherwise the

sward will be damaged in a dry

period. If the grass has grown

particularly high (for example,

during a holiday period), cut it back

to its normal height in several

stages.

Mulching using the accessories

(optional)

During mowing the grass is cut into

small pieces (approx. 1 cm) and is

left on the ground. A lot of the

nutrients in the cut grass are

retained for the benefit of the lawn.

Please note the following:

 Do not mow wet grass.

 Never mow more than max. 2 cm

of the total grass length.

 Drive slowly.

 Use maximum engine speed

 Clean the mower cover regularly.
