Firmly hold the handle with both hands when mowing. The mowing
speed guideline is approximately 7 to 14 meters per 10 seconds.

NOTE:
When cutting long lawn or dense lawn, if the
unevenness in the length of lawn or poor nish is found
after mowing, or decrease of the motor speed is found
during mowing, decrease the mowing speed lower than
recommended in this manual, or raise the mowing height.
The center lines of the front wheels are guidelines to mowing
width. Using the center lines as guidelines, mow in strips. Overlap
by one half to one third the previous strip to mow the lawn evenly.

Change the mowing direction each time to prevent the
grass grain pattern from forming in just one direction.

Periodically check the grass basket for mowed grass.
Empty the grass before it becomes full. Before every
periodical check, be sure to stop and turn o the
machine.
NOTICE: Using the mower with the grass basket
full prevents smooth blade rotation and places
an extra load on the motor, which may cause
breakdown.
Mowing long lawn
Do not try to cut long lawn all at once. Instead, mow the
lawn in steps. Leave a day or two between mowings
until the lawn becomes evenly short.
Fig.35
NOTE: Mowing long lawn to short length all at once
may cause the lawn to die. The cut lawn may also
block up inside of the mower body.
NOTE: If the unevenness in the length of lawn or poor
nish is found after mowing, or decrease of the motor
speed is found during mowing, decrease the mowing
speed, or raise the mowing height.

ularly check the grass basket for any damage or
