Make sure the leaf bag dump rope is
secured to the riding mower during use but
does not interfere with the operation of the
mower. Additionally, make sure the leaf bag
dump rope is not in a position to become
entangled in the wheels or brushes of the
sweeper. Failure to safely secure the rope
during use can damage the sweeper or
cause you to lose control of the mower.
