Operation
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine
from the normal operating position.
Important
If the machine is on a slope, chock or block
the wheels to prevent the machine from slowly rolling.
Warning
To avoid personal injury, follow these procedures:
Become familiar with all operating and safety
instructions in the operator's manual for your
mower before using this attachment.
Never remove the bagger or bagger tubes while
the engine is running.
Always shut the engine off and wait for all
moving parts to stop before clearing an
obstruction from the bagging system.
Never do maintenance or repairs while the
engine is running.
Warning
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.
Never remove the grass deflector from the
mower because the grass deflector routes
material down toward the turf. If the grass
deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
Never try to clear the discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the power take off
(PTO) to off and rotate the ignition key to off.
Also remove the key and pull the wire off of the
spark plug(s).
Opening the Bagger
1. Disengage the PTO.
2. Reach back, squeeze and release the latch lever against
the bagger lever (Fig. 26). This will open the latch that
secures the bagger door.
3. Pull down on the bagger arm to allow the grass to fall
out of the bagger (Fig. 26).
