MOWING WITH A GRASS CATCHER
ATTACHMENT (continued):
7. Maintain sharp blades throughout the cutting
season.
Some grass catching attachments require a
“high-lift” blade. See your dealer for advice on the
type of blade(s) needed for your mower.
8. Use of grass catchers requires an additional weight
kit be fitted to the mower to counter the weight of
grass in the bags. Please consult with your dealer for
more information.
WARNING
•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. Fire could result.
•Disengage blade and stop engine prior to clearing grass from
either the discharge chute or grass catcher components.
Do not operate the mower with the grass catching attachment
partially removed. Operator or bystanders could be injured by
thrown objects.
•Keep all attachment bolts tight.
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.
Failure to observe the following instructions
may result in personal injury.
