FLIP-OVER HANDLE FEATURE
•
By pulling the handle release lever and flipping the handle to the
opposite side of the mower, the cord remains on the same side of the
mower and out of the way.
•
You must mow in a back and forth pattern to benefit from this feature.
MULCHING MOWING TIPS
In the mulching configuration your new mower is designed to re-cut the
grass clippings into short lengths. These clippings, which are dispersed as
you mow will biodegrade quickly and provide nutrients for the lawn.
•
Set mower at highest cutting height when mowing in rough ground or in
tall weed.
•
Avoid cutting the lawn when it is wet. Wet grass tends to form clumps
with the mulching action. The best time to cut your lawn is in the
afternoon.
•
For best results, adjust the lawnmower cutting height so that the
lawnmower cuts off only the top third of the grass blades.
•
If your lawn is overgrown it may be necessary to increase the cutting
height to reduce the pushing effect and prevent overloading the motor.
•
For extremely heavy mulching make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
•
Change your cutting pattern from week to week. Mow north to south one
week and east to west the next week. This will help prevent matting and
graining of the lawn.
CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO UNCLOG THE BLADE
!
CHAMBER BY DROPPING OR TAPPING THE TOOL ON
THE GROUND. THIS CAN DAMAGE THE UNIT. KEEP
HANDS CLEAR OF BLADE WHEN CLEANING.
Before each mowing session unplug the mower and ensure that the blade has
stopped. Check all nuts, bolts and screws to ensure proper tightness, Be sure
to check the blade fastening system.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
maintenance and adjustment (including brush inspection and replacement)
should be performed by SEARS Service Centres or other qualified service
organizations, always using Sears replacement parts. When servicing use
ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
OPERATION
DISCHARGING
The mower is designed to disperse the clippings back to the lawn.
1. Discharging may be necessary if the grass fills the optional bag too quickly.
2. Clippings may be further dispersed, if needed, by blowing them with a yard
blower.
3. In heavy grass conditions, a narrower pass may be required.
OPTIONAL GRASS BAG
(Available as an option at extra cost)
It is recommended to bag the clippings for the first few spring mowings and
the last mowing of the season to discourage diseases. (Sears Sku #38215)
1. Bagging the clipping is sometimes preferred to reduce tracking of
clippings into pools, hot tubs, and homes.
2. Clippings can be added to your compost bin and used later for a natural
fertilizer.
OTHER MOWING TIPS
•
Mow across the face of slopes, never up-and-down. Exercise extreme
caution when changing direction on slopes. Do not mow excessively steep
slopes. Always maintain good footing.
•
Release switch to turn mower "OFF" when crossing any graveled area
(stones can be thrown by the blade).
•
Set mower at highest cutting height when mowing in rough ground or in tal
weed.
•
From time to time turn off mower-UNPLUG CORD-turn mower on its side
Using an object such as a stick, wipe out any accumulation of grass in the
blade area. Be careful of the sharp edges of the blade. If a grass catcher is
used during the fast growing season, the grass may tend to clog up at the
discharge opening. Turn the switch "OFF" and disconnect the power cord
plug. Remove the catcher and shake the grass down to the back end of the
bag. Also clean out any grass or debris which which may be packed around
the discharge opening. Replace the grass catcher. Clean often in wet, spring
grass.
•
If mower should start to vibrate abnormally, turn mower "OFF" and unplug
power cord. Check immediately for cause. Vibration is a warning of trouble
Do not operate mower until a service check has been made.
•
ALWAYS TURN THE SWITCH OFF AND UNPLUG THE MOWER WHEN
LEAVING IT UNATTENDED EVEN FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
•
When you are finished mowing, turn mower "OFF", and unplug the
extension cord at the electrical outlet before coiling it for storage.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect and thoroughly clean your mower at the beginning of each mowing season
for longer life and better performance.
From time to time turn the mower off and wait for the blade to stop. Then unplug
the power cord and turn the mower on its side. Using an object such as a stick or
rag, wipe out any accumulation of grass in the blade area. Also clean out any
grass or debris which may be packed around the discharge/mulch door area. Be
careful of the sharp edges of the blade.
