The recommended cut for mulching is 1/3 the length of the 
grass. Ground speed will need to be adjusted so the 
clippings can be dispersed evenly into the lawn. For 
especially heavy cutting in thick grass it may be necessary 
to use one of the slowest speeds in order to get a clean 
well mulched cut. When mulching long grass you may have 
to cut the lawn in two passes, lowering the blade another 
1/3 of the length for the second cut and perhaps cutting in a 
different pattern than was used the first time.
Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will also help to 
clean up any stray clippings left on the lawn. The mower 
should always be operated at full throttle to get the best 
cut and allow it to do the most effective job of mulching. 
Clean underside of deck.
Be certain to clean the underside of the cutting deck after 
each use to avoid a build-up of grass, which would 
prevent proper mulching. Mulching leaves. The mulching 
of leaves can also be beneficial to your lawn. When 
mulching leaves make sure they are dry and are not 
laying too thick on the lawn. Do not wait for all the leaves 
to be off the trees before you mulch.

WARNING:

 If you strike a foreign object, stop the 

engine. Remove wire from spark plug, thoroughly inspect 
the mower for any damage and repair the damage before 
restarting and operating the mower. Extensive vibration of 
the mower during operation is an indication of damage. 
The unit should be promptly inspected and repaired.

each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings, leaves, 
dirt or other matter. If this debris is allowed to accumulate, 
it will invite rust and corrosion, and may prevent proper 
mulching. The deck may be cleaned by tilting the mower 
and scraping clean with a suitable tool (make certain the 
spark plug wire is disconnected).
