Opening the Bagger Important Set the parking brake, and chock or block the tires when leaving the machine unattended, even if just for a few minutes. 1. Disengage the PTO. 2. Reach back, squeeze and release the latch lever against the bagger lever (Fig. 25). This will open the latch that secures the bagger door. Warning To avoid personal injury, follow these procedures: 3. Pull down on the bagger arm to allow the grass to fall out of the bagger (Fig. 25).
3. Open the bagger; refer to Opening the Bagger, page 15. 3. Unlatch the middle tube from the boot and slide apart (Fig. 22). 4. With the bagger open, pull out the holding pin and insert into the hole in the hinge (Fig. 26). 4. Remove the tube assembly from the bagger (Fig. 22). 5. Remove the boot from the mounting bracket (Fig. 22). 6. If you are changing to side discharge mode, install the grass deflector. Refer to Installing the Grass Deflector on page 16.
Operating and Bagging Tips Warning Machine Size An uncovered discharge opening could allow the lawn mower to throw objects in the operator’s or bystander’s direction and result in serious injury. Also, contact with the blade could occur. Remember that the machine is longer and wider with this attachment installed. By turning too sharply in confined places you may damage the attachment or other property.
Caution Warning As the bagger fills, extra weight is added to the back of the machine. If you stop and start suddenly on hills, you may lose steering control or the machine may tip. Without the grass deflector, bagger tubes or complete bagger assembly mounted in place, you and others are exposed to blade contact and thrown debris. Contact with the rotating mower blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or death. • Do not start or stop suddenly when going uphill or downhill. Avoid uphill starts.
Maintenance Important If the machine is on a slope, set the parking brake and chock or block the wheels to prevent the machine from slowly rolling.
Inspecting the Mower Blades and Baffles 2. Inspect the bagger attachment for damage. Refer to Inspecting the Bagger Attachment on page 19. 3. Make sure the bagger is empty and thoroughly dry. 1. Inspect the mower blades and baffles regularly and whenever a blade strikes a foreign object. 4. Check the belt for wear or cracks. 2. If blades or baffles are badly worn or damaged, install new blades or baffles. Refer to your mower operator’s manual for complete blade maintenance. 5.
Problem Boot and tubes plug g too frequently. q y Debris blowout. Possible Causes Corrective Action 1. Hopper is too full. 1. Dump more frequently. 2. Low engine speed. 2. Always operate the bagger at full throttle. 3. Grass is too wet. 3. Cut grass when dry. 4. Grass is too long. 4. Cut no more that 2–3 inches or 1/3 of the grass height, which ever is less. 5. Plugged fan screen. 5. Remove debris, leaves or grass clippings from the fan screen. 6. Ground speed is too fast. 6.
