OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOWING WITH A GRASS CATCHER ATTACHMENT
(continued):
7. Operate the mower at a slower ground speed
than when mowing without a grass catching
attachment.
8. Some mowing applications/use of grass
catchers may require that an optional weight
box be fitted to the mower to counter the weight
of grass in the bags. Please consult with your
dealer for more information regarding
installation and adding weight to the box.
CAUTION
Watch for low hanging branches or other
obstacles which might hit the catcher top while
turning or backing the mower.
Use care when backing to avoid pushing the
grass bags into the frame or “hot” exhaust
muffler of the engine.
Disengage blade and stop engine prior to
clearing grass from either the discharge chute
or grass catcher components.
Keep all attachment bolts tight.
Do Not
operate the mower with the grass
catching attachment partially removed.
Important: Do Not
leave clippings in the bags
while the mower is stored. Damp grass clippings
are a fire hazard if left in the bag.
