Tips on lawn care
Mowing
Lawns consist of various grass types.
Frequent mowing promotes the
growth of grass, resulting in strong
roots and a firm sward. If you seldom
cut the grass, you will enhance the
development of high-growing types
of grass and other weeds, such
as clover, daisies ...).
The normal height of a lawn is approx.
4–5 cm. The grass should only be cut
back by
1
/
3
rd of the overall height
at any one time, i.e. cut the lawn back
to its normal height when it has
reached 7–8 cm. Try not to cut the
grass shorter than 4 cm, otherwise
the lawn will suffer during dry periods.
If the grass has grown particularly
high (for example, during a holiday
period), cut it back to its normal
height in several stages.
Mulching with accessory
(optional)
The grass is chopped up fine (approx.
1 cm) during mowing and is left on the
lawn. The lawn therefore retains a lot
of nutrients. Please note the following:
 Do not mow wet grass.
 Never mow more than max. 2 cm
of the total grass length.
 Drive slowly.
 Have the engine at max. rpm.
 Clean the mower cover regularly.
Note
Attach mulching accessory depen-
ding on the model. Assembly
examples in Fig. 15.
Transporting
the appliance
If changing location, drive the lawn
tractor short distances only.
otherwise transport it by vehicle.
Note
The mower is not approved
for public thoroughfares in accor-
dance with StVO.
