OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

SIDE DISCHARGE OF THE CLIPPINGS:

In order to achieve optimum performance when side discharging the grass clippings, please read and

follow the tips listed below.

Additional information can be found in the troubleshooting guide on Page 28.

Be sure that deflector is properly installed on the

discharge chute.

1. Set engine speed control to the wide open or full setting.

2. Do Not Attempt To Cut Grass When It Is Wet. Wet grass will clog the underside of the deck and

discharge area.

3. If the grass is tall, place the mower deck cut height lever in the top or second notch. "Initially"

overlap cutting swaths instead of a full swath with each pass. Some applications may require a

second cutting.

4. Keep The Underside Of The Mower Deck Clean. Frequent removal of dried grass and dirt will

allow the clippings to discharge correctly.

5. Maintain Sharp Blade(s) Throughout The Cutting Season.

GRASS HEIGHT SUGGESTIONS:

Correct mowing height can reduce weeds and disease by 50 to 80%

in a healthy lawn. Some locations and applications may require slightly different cut heights. If in
