Never use the differential lock when changing travel direction. Otherwise there is a risk of serious damage to the
transmission!

(15) MULCHING FLAP LEVER
The lever has two functions:
1) Grass collection – grass clippings are collected in the grass catcher
2) Mulching
– grass clippings are spread out under the lawnmower
Prior to shifting the lever from the grass collection position to the mulching position (down), first stop the machine and allow the
mowing deck to run approximately 20 seconds without the mowing function so that remaining glass clippings are blown out the
ejection chute. Only then shift the lever to the mulching position and start travelling forward. Not adhering to this procedure may cause
the incorrect function of the flap and the clogging of the ejection chute.
Setting the lever to position 1 (closer to the front wheels) opens up the mulching flap and grass is collected in the
grass catcher.
Setting the lever to position 2 (closer to the rear wheels) closes the mulching flap and grass is spread out under the
4.1c
lawnmower.
To ensure the correct function of the mulching flap, it is necessary to thoroughly clean out grass clippings and dirt from the
mowing deck and the ejection chute at the end of the mowing session.
