Inspecting the Bagger
Attachment
Inspect the bagger attachment after the first
10 hours of operation, and monthly
thereafter.
1. Check the chute, discharge tube, and the
bagger top. Replace these parts if they
are cracked or broken.
2. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and screws.
3. Under normal use the bags will
deteriorate and wear. Inspect the grass
bags for deterioration.
You or bystanders could be severely
injured by flying debris or thrown
objects that may pass through torn,
worn or deteriorated grass bags.
Frequently check the grass bags
for holes, rips, wear, and other
deterioration.
Do not wash the grass bags.
If the bag has deteriorated, install
new grass bags supplied by the
manufacturer of this bagger
attachment.
Inspecting the Mower Blades
Refer to your mower Operator’s Manual for
complete blade maintenance.
Caring for the Grass Bags
Washing the grass bags is not
recommended.
Under normal use the bags will deteriorate
and wear. To prevent rapid deterioration of
the bag material, store the bags where they
will dry completely after each use.
Cleaning the Bagger
Attachment
1. After each use, remove and wash the
inside and outside of the bagger top,
discharge tube, chute, and the underside
of the mower, using water sprayed from a
garden hose. Use a mild automotive
detergent to remove stubborn dirt.
2. Make sure you remove matted grass
from all parts.
3. After washing, let all of the parts dry
thoroughly. Do not wash the grass bags.
Storage
Storing the Bagger
Attachment
1. Clean the bagger attachment; refer to
Cleaning the Bagger Attachment.
2. Inspect the bagger attachment for
damage; refer to Inspecting the Bagger
Attachment.
3. Make sure the grass bags are empty and
thoroughly dry.
4. Store the bagger in a clean, dry place,
out of direct sunlight. This protects the
plastic parts and extends the life of the
bagger. If you must store the bagger
outside, cover it with a weatherproof
cover.
