Emptying the Grass Bags DANGER Debris, such as leaves, grass, or brush can catch fire. A fire in the engine area can cause personal injury and property damage. • Keep the engine and muffler area free of debris accumulation. • Take care when opening the bagger cover to keep debris from falling onto the engine and muffler area. • Allow the machine to cool before storing it.

Clearing Obstructions from the Bagger You can remove the bagger by repeating the Setup sections from all installed bagger related kits in reverse order. If weights are installed, always remove the front bagger weights when removing the bagger attachments. WARNING Note: It is necessary only to remove the cutoff baffle when installing a mulching kit. When the bagger is in operation, the blower is rotating and can cut off or injure hands and fingers.
Operating Tips CAUTION 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. Tips for Bagging Remembering the Size of the Machine with the Attachment • Do not start or stop suddenly when going uphill or downhill. Avoid uphill starts. Remember that the machine is longer and wider with this attachment installed. By turning too sharply in confined places, you may damage the attachment.
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 8 hours • Inspect the blower belt. • Inspect the bagger. After each use • Clean the hood screen. • Clean the bagger. Every 25 hours • Inspect the blower belt. Every 100 hours • Inspect the bagger.
Cleaning the Bagger and Bags 3. Remove the existing bagger belt from the mower-deck pulley. 4. Remove the blower from the mower deck. Service Interval: After each use 5. Wash the inside and outside of the bagger hood, bags, tube, and the underside of the mower. Remove the existing bagger belt from the blower pulleys. 6. Note: Use a mild automotive detergent to remove dirt. Install the new belt around the blower pulleys (Figure 35). 7. Install the blower onto the blower support. 1. 2.
Storage Storing the Bagger Attachment 1. Clean the bagger attachment; refer to Cleaning the Bagger Attachment. 2. Inspect the bagger attachment for damage; refer to Inspecting the Bagger Attachment. 3. Ensure that the grass bags are empty and thoroughly dry. 4. Store the bagger in a clean, dry place, out of direct sunlight. This protects the plastic parts and extends the life of the bagger. If you must store the bagger outside, cover it with a weatherproof cover.
