Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Troy-Bilt Mustang Z42 below.

How short should I cut the grass?

When the grass is longer than 4.5cm, the grass should be cut. The ideal length is between 3 and 4.5cm.

How often should I cut the grass?

In the spring, the grass should be cut every week, while in the summer once every two weeks is sufficient.

Can I mow the lawn when the grass is wet?

You can, but the result is better in dry weather. When the grass is wet, grass clumps can easily form and clog the mower.

Why is the engine not starting?

Firstly, ensure that the ignition switch is in the ON position and that the parking brake is engaged. Then, ensure that there is an adequate fuel supply in the tank. Additionally, make sure that the spark plug wire is securely connected to the spark plug. Finally, check the battery charge to see if it requires charging or replacement.

How can I improve the cutting performance of the lawnmower?

To enhance cutting performance, ensure that the cutting height is set appropriately for the type of grass being mowed. Additionally, sharpen the mower blades regularly to maintain their cutting efficiency. Clear any debris, such as grass clippings or sticks, from the cutting deck and the discharge chute. Lastly, make sure the engine speed is set to the recommended operating range for optimal cutting effectiveness.

What should I do if the lawnmower is not moving forward or backward?

If the mower is not moving, first confirm that the parking brake is disengaged. Then, check the transmission drive belt for any signs of wear or damage and replace if necessary. Ensure that the transmission control levers or pedal are properly positioned for forward or reverse movement, respectively. Additionally, inspect the drive system and wheels for any obstructions or debris that may be hindering their movement.

How can I prevent clogging or poor bagging performance?

Avoid mowing in excessively damp conditions, as wet grass clippings tend to clump and clog the discharge chute or bag. Adjust the cutting height to prevent excessive accumulation of grass clippings and to ensure proper airflow. Periodically clean the discharge chute and bag to prevent any buildup that may obstruct the grass clippings' flow. Lastly, if bagging performance remains unsatisfactory, consider replacing or emptying the bag more frequently to allow for better airflow.

What steps can I take to extend the life of the lawnmower?

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity of your lawnmower. Perform routine oil changes according to the manufacturer's recommendations to keep the engine properly lubricated. Clean the cutting deck after each use to prevent the buildup of debris or grass clippings that can lead to rust or damage. Check and replace air filters, spark plugs, and fuel filters as needed. Ensure that the belt tension is appropriately adjusted and that all moving parts are well-lubricated. Finally, store the lawnmower in a clean, dry area and consider using a cover to protect it from the elements.
