The less turning or backing up you do will reduce your mowing time.Tip #1Extremely tall grass should be mowedtwice. Raise the mower and cut half the desired height. Cut the second time at the desired height and at 90 degrees to the first pass.Tip #5Before beginning to mow, walk the area first and remove any stones or debris, which may be hidden in the grass.Tip #2Remember sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and use less power.Tip #6When mowing along roadsides, always discharge the material away from the road.Tip #3Before mowing, analyze the area to determine the best mowing procedure. Consider the height and type of grass and the terrain type (hilly, level or rough).13BATWING® CUTTERS | WOODSMowing Tips*NOTE: Woods Batwing® models pass all applicable safety standards for thrown object and blade contact without chain shielding.
