EMPTYING THE GRASS CATHER
3
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
¡ ¡
¡ ¡
¡
Raise and dump collected leaves or
grass clippings ONLY while sitting on
the Operator’s Seat.
¡ ¡
¡ ¡ ¡
Empty the container ONLY from a firm
and level surface, with the mower
stopped, and the machine stationary.
Dumping the container on soft or
uneven ground, or while moving, could
cause the machine to tip over, causing
serious injury and extensive equipment
damage.
¡ ¡
¡ ¡
¡
Make sure the dumping area is clear of
all bystanders and pets, before
emptying grass clippings or leaves from
the container.
To empty:
1.
Disengage the PTO lever.
2. Pull the hydraulic container dump lever backward
to dump the grass and push the lever forward to
close the container.
(1) Hydraulic container dump lever (A) “CLOSE”
(2) Lockarm (B) “NEUTRAL”
(3) Container pin (C) “EMPTYING”
IMPORTANT:
¡
Make sure the lockarms are locked properly on the
container pins when closing the container.
NOTE:
¡
To facilitate grass collection after mowing, it is
also better to put grass in two or three heaps
instead of spreading them over the area to be
mowed.
¡
Due to the simplicity and speed of this hydraulic
emptying, there is no point in wanting to fill the
container completely.
Empty the container even if it is not quite full
whenever you are close to a grass heap that you
have already started. You will thus avoid
unnecessary maneuvering.
