OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOWING - GRASS CATCHER ATTACHMENT:
In order to achieve optimum performance when mowing
with a grass catching attachment, please read and
follow the tips listed below.
1. Set engine speed control to the wide open or
full setting.
2. Do Not Attempt To Cut Grass When It Is Wet.
Wet grass will clog both the underside of the
deck and the attachment chutes. Empty bags
often to prevent plugging.
3. If the grass is tall, place the mower deck cut
height selector in the top or second notch.
Initially overlap cutting swaths instead of a full
swath with each pass.
4. Keep The Underside Of The Mower Deck Clean.
Frequent removal of dried grass and dirt will
greatly assist in bagging of the clippings.
5. 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.
6. Operate the mower at a slower ground speed
than when mowing without a grass catching
attachment.
