1-2 Description
The GC-250 Grass Catcher, Figure 1, is designed for
turf maintenance where there is a need to collect the
grass clippings as the ZT mower cuts the turf. It is also
good for picking up leaves and twigs in pre-season and
post-season clean-up.
Grass clippings are drawn from the discharge area of
the cutter deck up to the collection bags mounted over
the rear portion of the ZT frame. Once the bags are full
of clippings, the top of the unit can be pivoted up and
each of the two bags can be removed individually for
emptying.
