OperatingTips
FastThrottleSetting
Forbestmowingandmaximumaircirculation,operate theengineattheFastposition.Airisrequiredto thoroughlycutgrassclippings,sodonotsetthe height-of-cutsolowastototallysurroundthemower byuncutgrass.Alwaystrytohaveonesideofthe mowerfreefromuncutgrass,whichallowsairtobe drawnintothemower.
CuttingaLawnfortheFirstTime
Cutgrassslightlylongerthannormaltoensurethatthe cuttingheightofthemowerdoesnotscalpanyuneven ground.However,thecuttingheightusedinthepastis generallythebestonetouse.Whencuttinggrasslonger thansixinchestall,youmaywanttocutthelawntwice toensureanacceptablequalityofcut.
Cut1/3oftheGrassBlade
Itisbesttocutonlyabout1/3ofthegrassblade. Cuttingmorethanthatisnotrecommendedunless grassissparse,oritislatefallwhengrassgrowsmore slowly.
MowingDirection
Alternatemowingdirectiontokeepthegrassstanding straight.Thisalsohelpsdisperseclippingswhich enhancesdecompositionandfertilization.
MowatCorrectIntervals
Normally,moweveryfourdays.Butremember, grassgrowsatdifferentratesatdifferenttimes.So tomaintainthesamecuttingheight,whichisagood practice,mowmoreofteninearlyspring.Asthegrass growthrateslowsinmidsummer,mowlessfrequently. Ifyoucannotmowforanextendedperiod,rstmow atahighcuttingheight;thenmowagaintwodayslater atalowerheightsetting.
CuttingSpeed
Toimprovecutquality,useaslowergroundspeed.
AvoidCuttingTooLow
Ifthecuttingwidthofthemoweriswiderthanthe moweryoupreviouslyused,raisethecuttingheightto ensurethatuneventurfisnotcuttooshort.
LongGrass
Ifthegrassiseverallowedtogrowslightlylongerthan normal,orifitcontainsahighdegreeofmoisture,raise thecuttingheighthigherthanusualandcutthegrassat thissetting.Thencutthegrassagainusingthelower, normalsetting.
WhenStopping
Ifthemachine’sforwardmotionmustbestoppedwhile mowing,aclumpofgrassclippingsmaydropontoyour lawn.T oavoidthis,moveontoapreviouslycutarea withthebladesengaged.
KeeptheUndersideoftheMower Clean
Cleanclippingsanddirtfromtheundersideofthe moweraftereachuse.Ifgrassanddirtbuildupinside themower,cuttingqualitywilleventuallybecome unsatisfactory.
BladeMaintenance
Maintainasharpbladethroughoutthecuttingseason becauseasharpbladecutscleanlywithouttearingor shreddingthegrassblades.Tearingandshreddingturns grassbrownattheedges,whichslowsgrowthand increasesthechanceofdisease.Checkthecutterblades dailyforsharpness,andforanywearordamage.File downanynicksandsharpenthebladesasnecessary.Ifa bladeisdamagedorworn,replaceitimmediatelywitha genuineTororeplacementblade.OnlyT orobladesare tobeusedwiththisunit.Nootherbladesareapproved.
