Grass Cutting PDF Print E-mail

MOWING TECHNIQUES:

1.  Before mowing always walk over the lawn and check for obstacles and debris and remove them.

2.  Check the oil and fuel levels in the mower.  NEVER fill the lawn mower on the grass as any spillages will kill the grass.

3.  Start the machine observing the points raised above.  Start cutting the lawn around the perimeter of the area and then around any obstacles in the lawn.

4.  Proceed by cutting the lawn up and down remembering to empty the grassbox at regular intervals to avoid the machine from clogging.
