MULCHING MOWING TIPS
IMPORTANT: FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, KEEP MOWER
HOUSING FREE OF BUILT-UP GRASS AND TRASH. CLEAN
AFTER EACH USE.
• The blades will recut the grass clip pings 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 quick ly to provide nutri-
ents for the lawn. Always mulch with your highest engine
(blade) speed as this will pro vide 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 mulch ing action. The
best time to mow your lawn is the early afternoon. At this
time the grass has dried and the newly cut area will not be
exposed to the direct sun.
• For best results, adjust the mower cutting height so that
the mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass
blades. For ex tremely heavy mulch ing, re duce your width
of cut and mow slow ly.

• Certain types of grass and grass con di tions may re quire
that an area be mulched a second time to com pletely hide
the clippings. When doing a sec ond cut, mow across or
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.
