5.6 SUGGESTIONS FOR MAINTAINING A

NICE LAWN

1. To keep a lawn green and soft with a good

appearance, it should be cut regularly with-

out damaging the grass. A lawn can be com-

posed of dierent types of grass. If the lawn

is cut frequently, grass and roots grow more

vigorously, forming a solid grassy bed. If the

lawn is cut is less frequently, higher grass

and weeds start growing (clover and daisies,

etc.).

2. It is always better to cut the grass when dry.

3. The cutting means must be in good condition

and well sharpened so that the grass is cut

straight without a ragged edge that leads to

yellowing at the ends.

4. The engine must run at full speed, both to

ensure a sharp cut of the grass and to get the

necessary thrust to push the cuttings through

the collector channel.

5. The frequency of mowing should be in rela-

tion to the rate of growth of the grass, which

should not be left to grow too much between

one cut and the next.

6. During hot and dry periods, the grass should

be cut a little higher to prevent the ground

from drying out.

7. The best height of the grass on a well-kept

lawn is approx. 4-5 cm. and with one mowing,

you do not need to remove more than a third

of the total height. If the grass is very tall,

it should be cut twice in a twenty-four hour

period. The rst time with the cutting means

at maximum cutting height, possibly reducing

the cutting width and the second cut at the

height desired. Fig. 5.13)

8. The appearance of the lawn will improve if

you alternate the cutting in both directions

(Fig. 5.14)

9. If the collector system tends to get blocked

with grass, you should reduce the forward

speed as it may be too high for the condi-

tion of the grass. If the problem persists, the

probable causes are either badly sharpened

cutting means or deformed ns.

10. Be very careful when mowing near bushes

or kerbs as these could distort the horizon-

tal position of the cutting-means assembly

and damage its edge as well as the cutting

means.
