MOWlNGTIPS
• Tire chains cannot be used when the
mower housing isattached to tractor.
• Mower should be propedy leveled for
best mowing performance. See =TO
LEVEL MOWER HOUSING" in the
Service and Adjustmentssection of this
manual.
• The left hand side of mower should be
used for trimming.
• Drive so that clippings are discharged
onto the area that has been cut. Have
the cut area tothe dght ofthe tractor.
Thiswill result in a more even distdbu-
tion of clippingsand more uniform
cutting.
• When mowing large areas, start by
turningto the dght so that clippingswill
discharge away from shrubs,fences,
driveways, etc. Afterone or two
rounds, mow in the opposite direction
making left hand turns untilfinished.
• Ifgrass Is extremely tall,it should be
mowed twice to reduce load and
possible fire hazard from dded dip-
pings. Make firstcat relatively high;the
second to the desired height.
• Do not mow grass when it iswet. Wet
grass will plug mower and leave
undesirable clumps. Allow grass to dry
before mowing.
• Always operate engine at full throttle
when mowing toassure better mowing
performance and proper discharge of
material. Regulate ground speed by
selecting a low enough gear to give the
mower cuttingperformance as well as
the quality of cut desired.
• When operating attachments, select a
ground speed that will suit the terrain
and give best performance of the
attachment being used.
