6.4 OPERATION
IMPORTANT When working, always keep
a safe distance from the cutting means,
given by the length of the handle.
6.4.1 Grass cutting
1. Start moving forward and mowing in the grass area.
2. Regulate the forward speed and the cutting
height (par. 5.7) considering the conditions of
the lawn (the height, density and dampness of
the grass) and the amount of grass collected.
3. The appearance of the lawn will improve
if you alternate cutting in both directions
at the same height (Fig.19.0).
For mulching or rear grass discharge:
•
grass. Never cut more than one third of the
total grass height per single pass (Fig.18.0).
•
For side discharge: it is best to mow in a pattern where
cut grass is not discharged on the grass still to be cut.
6.4.2 Suggestions for maintaining a nice lawn
• To keep a lawn green and soft with a good appearance,
it should be cut regularly. A lawn can be composed of
grass and roots grow more vigorously, forming a solid
grass and weeds start growing (clover and daisies,
to the rate of growth of the grass, which should not be
left to grow too much between one cut and the next.
• The best height of the grass on a well-kept lawn
not need to remove more than a third of the total
height. If the grass is very tall, it should be cut
with the cutting means at maximum cutting height
and the second cut at the height desired.
• Cutting too low tears and uproots the grass,
giving it a “spotted” appearance.
• During hot and dry periods, the grass should be cut a
little higher to prevent the ground from drying out.
• It is always better to cut the grass when dry. Do
not cut wet grass; this could reduce cutting means
• 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.
6.4.3 Emptying the grass catcher
When the grass catcher (Fig.1.H) is too full,
the sound of the lawnmower changes.
For a grass catcher with contents indicator device:
Up = empty
Down = full
While working with the cutting means running, the
indicator remains raised for as long as the grass catcher
is able to hold cut grass; when it lowers, it means
that the grass catcher is full and must be emptied.
1. Release the engine / cutting means
brake lever (Fig.20.A).
2. Wait until the cutting means stops.
3. With “II” type grass catcher only
• Lift the rear discharge guard (Fig.11.B).
4. Grasp the handle and remove the grass
catcher keeping it in an erect position.
6.5 STOP
1. Release the engine / cutting means
brake lever (Fig.20.A).
2. Wait until the cutting means stops.
When you have stopped the machine, it will take a
few seconds for the cutting means to stop.
