New owner with only 4hrs on unit. How do you guys mow leaves with this unit? It just seems to blow the leaves. I like cutting up leaves for the garden collecting them with a lawn sweeper. Does a mulching blade make any difference. Also, the see thru viewing of how much gasoline is in gas tank sucks.

I mow with a Scag ZT and don't have the issue of just blowing the leaves with out cutting. The leaves you are mowing over will get cut, but the next row will get blown by the discharge chute.
I see some people cutting in rectangles so the cut leaves will accumulate in a row for sweeper pick up. You just need to lower the throttle to control how far the leaves blow in the last two or three rows.
I just mowed our back yard today since the maple tress just lost their last leaves. The cut leaves were so small you would not be able to pick them up with a lawn sweeper.
