MULCHING MOWING TIPS
IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep
mower housing free of built-up grass and
trash. Clean after each use.
The special mulching blade will recut the
grass clippings many times and reduce
them in size so that as they fall onto the
lawn they will disperse into the grass and
not be noticed. Also, the mulched grass will
biodegrade quickly to provide nutrients for
the lawn. Always mulch with your highest
engine (blade) speed as this will provide
the best recutting action of the blades.
Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet. Wet
grass tends to form clumps and interferes
with the mulching action. The best time
to mow your lawn is the early afternoon.
At this time the grass has dried, yet the
newly cut area will not be exposed to direct
sunlight.
For best results, adjust the mower cutting
height so that the mower cuts off only
the top one-third of the grass blades. For
extremely heavy grass, reduce your width
of cut on each pass and mow slowly.
Certain types of grass and grass conditions
may require that an area be mulched a
second time to completely hide the clip-
pings. When doing a second cut, mow
across (perpendicular) to the first cut path.
Change your cutting pattern from week to
week. Mow north to south one week then
change to east to west the next week. This
will help prevent matting and graining of
the lawn.
