• Mowing with the Grass Bag
WARNING
A worn grass bag could allow small stones
and other similar debris to be thrown in the
operator’s or bystander’s direction. Thrown
objects can result in serious personal injury
or death to the operator or bystanders.
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is
damaged, install a new Exmark replacement
bag.
Cut the grass until the bag is full.
Note: Do Not overll the bag.
• Removing the Grass Bag
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts
to stop.
2. Raise the rear discharge door and grasp the
handle on the bag.
3. Lift the bag off of the lawn mower and lower
the rear discharge door.
4. Gradually tip the bag forward to empty the
clippings.
5. To install the bag, refer to the section on
Installing the Grass Bag.
DANGER
If the discharge door does not close
completely, the lawn mower could throw
objects. Thrown objects can result in serious
personal injury or death to the operator or
bystanders.
• Never open the door to the discharge
opening when the engine is running.
• If you cannot close the door because the
grass clippings clog the discharge area,
stop the engine and gently move the
discharge door handle back and forth
until you can close the door completely. If
you still cannot close the door, remove the
obstruction with a stick, not your hand.
