window that is opened by the airow that the lawn mower 
generates during operation (Fig. 16).
2.  If the ap closes during mowing, this indicates that the 
grass bag is full and must be emptied (Fig. 16).
NOTE: To ensure that the lling level indicator functions 
properly, keep the holes under the ap clean and permeable.
Mowing Tips
mWARNING! Inspect the area prior to mowing and 
remove all the stones, sticks, wires and other foreign objects 
that could be picked up and thrown by the rotating blade. 
Failure to comply not only will damage the mower blade, but 
can also lead to serious personal injury. 
•  Be sure to check the mowing blade periodically for signs 
of wear and sharpen it at least once per year, as described 
in the maintenance section. 
  NOTE: A sharp blade will greatly enhance the 
performance of the mower, especially when cutting tall 
blades of grass. 
•  When cutting thick grass, reduce your walking speed 
in order to allow for a more eective cut and a proper 
discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut 
o one-third or less from the total length of the grass. The 
average lawn should be approximately 1.5 to 2 in. (3.8 to 5 
cm) long during cool months, and more than 2 in. (5 cm) 
long during hot months. If there is growth, the lawn should 
be cut in the fall.
•  The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same 
height and in alternate directions.
