Bagging the Clippings
Use the grass bag when you want to collect grass and
leaf clippings from the lawn.
A worn grass bag could allow small stones
and other similar debris to be thrown in the
operator’s or bystander’s direction and result in
serious personal injury or death to the operator
or bystanders.
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is damaged,
install a new Hayter replacement bag.
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can
result in serious personal injury.
Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop before leaving the operating position.
To bag the grass clippings, install the grass bag
(refer to Installing the Grass Bag) and move the
Recycling/bagging lever to the bagging mode
(Figure 17).
Installing the Grass Bag
Raise and hold up the rear door, install the bag, and
lower the rear door (Figure 18).
