Important notes
• Always work at right angles to the slope.
• Try not to cut grass when wet.
• Use overlapping paths to produce an
even cutting pattern.
• Cut longer grass with a greater cutting
height initially, then cut crosswise using
the desired cutting height.
Tips for mulching
Note: Mulching uses the cut grass as
a natural fertiliser. When mulching,
the grass is cut, shredded into small
pieces and distributed across the
lawn in a single process.

– Do not mulch damp grass.
