When MULCHING grass and you do not want to have all 4 wheels at the same height, is it better to have the front of the mower HIGHER then the BACK or vice-versa? I am looking for NO grass clippings or clumps exiting from the rear of my rear discharge mower. I have been told to "Heel" the mower...

I would like to take a poll on which set-up does a better job on cutting grass. I am talking about a Honda HRX217vka with the GCV200 engine and the Versamow 4 in 1 system set to full MULCH. Of course it has the Micro Cut twin blade system. I would like to see a good cut with little or no grass...

I just got my Honda HRX217VKA with the GCV200 engine, and I really like it.I have one question about the height adjustment of the wheels. I find that with the zoysia grass that I have in my back yard I get a better cut, no grass clippings at all trailing the back wheels, if I set both front...

What I want to ask is what is the difference between mulching and rear discharge with no grass bag on, with any of the Honda hrx series lawn mower. All have the micro cut twin blade system.

Can someone tell me when Honda first started to use the new GVC200 engine, instead of the GVC190, in their HRX series lawnmower? Someone told me it was at the beginning of this year(2019). The mower I am looking at is the HRX2176VKA which I believe is the same as HRX217VKA. Thanks:confused2:

Tomorrow I pick up my Honda HRX217VKA mower. My question is with the Versamow system, which will (bag,mulch rear discharge and LEAF SHREDDING). Just what do you have to do differently to go into the leaf shredding mode? Is leaf shredding the same as bag, mulch or rear discharge EXCEPT you have...

I own a Husqvarna (HU775H) bought in 2013. Do you think that it is a huge upgrade by going from the Husqvarna to a 2019 Honda HRX217VKA. I would think so, but I would appreciate some thoughts on this .

I own a HUSQVARNA HU775H lawnmower. With the lever all the way back toward rear of mower (NOTCH 1) this will give you the lowest cut of grass ( With the lever all the way forward (NOTCH 6), this will give you the highest cut of grass (raises mower). My question is: What is the cutting height of...

I could not find a youtube to demonstrate what to do the first time I want to regulate my walking speed when I get my Honda HRX217VKA. Is the following a good sequence of what to do? Once I start the engine, depress the select drive control fully down; Then turn the MIN/MAX knob until I reach...

Can someone please explain to me why the manual for (VRX217VKA), actually all the vrx series, tells you to cut the grass counter- clockwise when you are mulching the lawn and clockwise when you are bagging it. I do not see why the direction you are going with the mower would make any difference...

I will be buying the Honda HRX217VKA, the 2019 version with the GVC200 engine. So far, the best price I have gotten is $589, No tax and free shipping. Does that sound like a good deal or should I continue to shop around ?:licking:

I am in the process of learning about Honda lawnmowers. I now own a Husqvarna HU775 , which I have had for 6 years, and it is ok, thanks mainly to my neighbor who is a wiz at maintaining any lawnmower! I have decided on the Honda HRX217K5VKA or the HRX217VKA (I believe these 2 models are one in...
