Husqvarna 532424695 ユーザーズマニュアル

•  Under certain conditions, such as very tall grass, it 

may be necessary to raise the height of cut to reduce 

pushing effort and to keep from overloading the engine 

and leaving clumps of grass clippings. It may also be 

necessary to reduce ground speed  and/or run the 

lawn mower over the area a second time.

•  For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut 

by overlapping previously cut path and mow slowly.

•  For better grass bagging and most cutting conditions, 

the engine speed should be set in the fast position.

•  Pores in cloth grass catchers can become filled with 

dirt and dust with use and catchers will collect less 

grass.  To prevent this, regularly hose catcher off with 

water and let dry before using.

•  Keep top of engine around starter clear and clean of 

grass clippings and chaff.  This will help engine air 

flow and extend engine life.

IMPORTANT:  FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, KEEP MOWER 

HOUSING FREE OF BUILT-UP GRASS AND TRASH. SEE 

“CLEANING” IN MAINTENANCE SECTION OF THIS MANUAL.

•   The special mulching blade will recut the grass clip-

pings many times and reduce them in size so that as 

they fall onto the lawn they will disperse into the grass 

and not be noticed.  Also, the mulched grass will biode-

grade quickly to provide nutrients for the lawn.  Always 

mulch with your highest engine (blade) speed as this 

will provide the best recutting action of the blades.

•    Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet.  Wet grass tends 

to form clumps and interferes with the mulching action.  

The best time to mow your lawn is the early afternoon.  

At this time the grass has dried, yet the newly cut area 

will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

•   For best results, adjust the lawn mower cutting height 

so that the lawn mower cuts off only the top one-third 

of the grass blades (See Fig. 10).  If the lawn is over-

grown it will be necessary to raise the height of cut to 

reduce pushing effort and to keep from overloading 

the engine and leaving clumps of mulched grass. For 

extremely heavy mulching, reduce your width of cut 

by overlapping previously cut path and mow slowly.

•  Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck.  Do not over-

fill.  Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a 

minimum of 87 octane.  Do not mix oil with gasoline.  

Purchase fuel in quan ti ties that can be used within 30 

days to assure fuel freshness.

•  To stop engine, release operator presence con trol bar.

NOTE: Due to protective coatings on the engine, a small 

amount of smoke may be present during the initial use of 

the product and should be considered normal. 
1.  To start a cold engine, push primer three (3) times 

before trying to start. Use a firm push. This step is not 

usually necessary when starting an engine which has 

already run for a few minutes.

2.  Hold operator presence control bar down to the han dle 

and turn the start key.

IMPORTANT:  DO NOT CRANK ENGINE MORE THAN FIVE 

CONTINOUS SECONDS BETWEEN EACH TIME YOU TRY TO 

START. WAIT 5 TO 10 SECONDS BETWEEN EACH ATTEMPT.

•  To start engine using the rope start er, follow the steps 

above. Exchange the use of the starter rope for start 

key. Pull starter handle quickly. Do not allow starter 

rope to snap back. 

NOTE: In cooler weather it may be necessary to repeat 

priming steps. In warmer weather over priming may cause 

flooding and engine will not start. If you do flood engine, 

wait a few minutes before attempting to start and do not 

repeat priming steps. 

•    Certain types of grass and grass conditions may require 

that an area be mulched a second time to completely 

hide the clippings.  When doing a second cut, mow 

across (perpendicular) to the first cut path.

•   Change your cutting pattern from week to week.  Mow 

north–south one week, then change to east–west the 

next week.  This helps prevent matting/graining of lawn.
