Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. To avoid personal injury, follow these procedures: • Become familiar with all operating and safety instructions in the Operator’s Manual for the mower before using this attachment. • Never remove the discharge tube, bags, bagger top, or the chute while the engine is running. Figure 15 1. Discharge tube 2. Chute 3.
Removing the Bagger 4. Install the bags by sliding the bag frame hooks onto the retaining brackets (Figure 17). An uncovered discharge opening could allow the lawn mower to throw objects in the operator or bystander’s direction and result in serious injury. Also, contact with the blade could occur. Never operate the lawn mower unless you install a cover plate, a mulch plate, or a grass chute and catcher. 1.

Size Replacing the Grass Deflector Remember that the mower is longer and wider with this attachment installed. By turning too sharply in confined places you may damage the attachment.
However, in extremely dry and dusty grass, you may want to slightly reduce the throttle speed and increase the ground speed of the mower. The bagging system may plug if you drive too fast and the engine speed gets too slow. On hills it may be necessary to slow the mower ground speed. This helps maintain the engine speed and bagging efficiency. Mow downhill whenever possible. As the bagger fills, extra weight is added to the back of the machine.
Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 10 hours • Inspect the bagger Before each use or daily Before storage • Clean the bagger • Inspect the bagger • Clean the bagger If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders.
If the blades are badly worn or damaged, install new blades. Refer to your mower or mower Operator’s Manual for complete blade maintenance. Storage Caring for the Grass Bags 1. Clean the bagger attachment; refer to Cleaning the Bagger Attachment. Storing the Bagger Attachment Washing the grass bags is not recommended. 2.
