OPERATING THE MOWER

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR MOWER

1. When using your mower for the first time, choose a
smooth level area and cut in straight and slightly
overlapping strips.
2. The size and type of the area to be mowed will
determine the proper mowing pattern. Take into
account obstructions, such as trees, fences and
buildings. To keep grass clippings off fences,
sidewalks, etc., it is advisable to go over the outside of
the area to be mowed several times in a clockwise
direction. To mow the area remaining, work in a
counterclockwise direction so that the clippings are
dispersed onto the previously cut area.
3. Always keep the left side of the mower toward trees,
posts or other obstacles on the first trip around the
obstacle.
4. Most lawns must be mowed to keep the grass
approximately 50 to 80 mm (2 to 3 in.) high. Best
results are obtained by cutting often and not too short.
To keep a green lawn, never mow more than 1/3 of the
height of the grass or a maximum of 25 mm (1 in.) in 1
mowing.
For extremely tall grass, set the cutting height at
maximum cutting height for the first mowing, then
reset to the desired height and mow again. Allow the
grass to grow to 80 mm (3 in.), then cut off only the top
inch.
5. For best appearance, grass must be cut in the
afternoon or evening when it is free of moisture.
To avoid serious injury or death:
A Clear the work area of objects which might be
picked up and thrown by blades.
A Keep bystanders and animals away from the
mowing area.
A Be sure to disengage the PTO and sit on the
operator's seat before starting the engine.

ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT

To avoid serious injury or death:
A Do not engage the mower in the transport
position.
1. Before adjusting cutting height, check that all tire
pressures are correct. If necessary adjust to the
correct tire pressure.
2. To set the cutting height, start engine and depress the
hydraulic lift control pedal (UP) to raise mower deck to
the top position. Adjust the cutting height control dial to
desired height.
Lower the mower deck by depressing the hydraulic lift
control pedal (DOWN).
Then the mower deck will be set to the cutting height.
3. Use the higher settings for mowing in a rough area or
when mowing tall grass. Lower settings must be used
only for smooth lawns where short grass is desired.
4. Lower the mower deck by depressing the hydraulic lift
control pedal (DOWN). This lowers the mower deck
from the "TRANSPORT" position to the
"OPERATING" position.
5. Adjust the anti-scalp rollers' height as recommended
below for normal operating condition. To minimize
gouging and roller damage or wear, the anti-scalp
rollers will maintain the ground clearance of 19 mm (3/
4 in.).
