In order to prevent electric shock, do not operate the hover blade grass cutter in damp or wet conditions.
Do not mow in a circle. Travel back and forth across the lawn following the path outlined below.
When cutting thick grass, reduce your walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less from the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1.5 to 2 in. (3.8 cm 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.
While cutting, make sure that the electric cable is always behind you and resting on the area of grass already cut.
The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same height and in alternate directions.
When crossing any graveled area, release the switch bar lever to turn off the hover grass cutter. The stones can be picked up and thrown by the rotating blades.
Set the hover grass cutter to the higher cutting height when cutting on uneven ground or in tall weeds.
