OPERATING THE LAWNMOWER
14
Grass Catcher:
Your rotary lawnmower can be operated with
the grass catcher fitted, or removed as a
utility mower.
Note that if the lawnmower is used with the
catcher removed, the rear flap must be fitted and located in the down / closed position. To fit the
grass catcher, stop the engine and position the catcher on the ground behind the mower. Raise
the rear flap and lift the catcher into position ensuring the catcher tongue is located over the rear
axle. Slide the catcher forward and upward; lower the flap so that the lugs on the flap locate into
the square holes on top of the catcher. Your catcher is now attached.
To remove the grass catcher, stop the engine, hold the catcher by its top handle raise the rear
flap. Lift the grass catcher up and away from the lawnmower and return the grass flap to its down
/ closed position.
Avoid leaving the catcher in direct sunlight when not in use. The catcher will not deteriorate if
stored wet but prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause premature UV breakdown. Dust and
clippings will build up inside the catcher and on its venting screen, particularly during wet weather
mowing. This debris will impede the function of the catcher so it should be removed by hosing
out with water when necessary.
Always shut off the engine and
ensure it has stopped before fitting or removing
the grass catcher or raising the rear flap.
