Operation 5. Install the bags by sliding the bag frame hooks onto the retaining brackets (Figure 19). Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. 1 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.
Removing the Bagger reduce the load on the engine and reduces the chance of plugging the chute and discharge tube. Bagging Speed Failing to remove the front bagger weights and operating the machine without the bagger attachment may cause an unstable condition which could result in a loss of control. Most often you will bag with the mower throttle in the Fast position and drive at a normal ground speed.
Signs of Plugging As you are bagging, a small amount of grass clippings normally blow out the front of the mower. An excessive amount of clippings blowing out indicates that the bags are full or the system is plugged.
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.
