OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
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. Some mowing applications/use of grass catchers may
require that 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 regarding
installation and adding weight to the box.
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.
