OPERATION
CAUTION
Do not leave grass in bagger
containers. Empty containers after
each use and before storing. Failure
to do so may result in spontaneous
combustion which could develop into
a re.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Always observe safety rules when performing any
maintenance.
Before each use check for loose fasteners.
Clean unit thoroughly after each use.
BLADE CARE
For best results mower blades must be kept sharp.
Replace bent or damaged blades.
See BLADE CARE instructions in your mower
operator’s manual.
STORAGE
When grass catcher is to be stored for a period of
time, clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grass, leaves,
etc. Store in a clean, dry place.
IMPROVED BAGGING TIPS
Follow the mower operation instructions in the mower
operator’s manual.
When using the grass catcher on a lawn where
grass and leaf bagging equipment has not been
used, thatch and debris that has accumulated for
long periods of time will be picked up. The amount
collected and the total time of operation may be
greater than experienced with regular use of the grass
catcher.
Always run throttle at full speed when bagging.
Select a speed low enough to give good mower
cutting performance, good quality cut and good
bagging performance.

If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed
twice. The rst time relatively high, the second
time to desired height.
Use left hand side of mower for trimming.
Plastic trash bags (3.0 mil, 30 gallon) can be
inserted inside grass catcher containers for ease
of debris disposal. To remove the plastic trash
bags when full:
a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage
the parking brake and stop the engine.
b. Unlatch and raise cover.
c. Remove one container at a time by grasping
container handles and pulling toward the rear,
off of the tube rails.
d. With the container resting on the ground,
close and secure the top of the plastic lawn
bag.
e. Tip the container on its side and slide the
lled bag from the container.
f. Install a new plastic lawn bag with the edges
of the bag draped over upper lip of the
container.
g. Repeat for other container.
h. Reinstall containers making sure right
container overlaps left container at center
supports.
i. Close cover and secure latches over center
support tubes.
Avoid cutting wet grass or mowing in the morning
while the dew is still heavy. Grass clippings
collected under these conditions tend to be sticky
and adhere to the walls of the ow path causing
clogging.
If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass
or leaves, it is an indication that clogging has
occurred in the system or that the grass catcher
containers are full.
a. Disengage blades, place motion control levers
in neutral position.
- Unlatch and raise cover.
- Slide out containers and dispose of
clippings.
- Replace containers, close cover, and
latch.
b. Unlatch chutes and check for clogging.
- Remove all debris in chute.
- Reassemble and latch chutes.
