1-2 Description
The grass collection system is designed for turf
maintenance where there is a need to collect the grass
clippings as the mower cuts the turf. It is also used for
picking up leaves and in pre-season and post-season
clean-up. The engine/blower/blade assembly is mounted
on the right side of the mower. The blower draws grass
clippings from the discharge area of the cutter deck back
to the 12 cubic foot aluminum box at the rear portion of
the mower frame. The operator can engage the blower
on the right side of the unit by starting the external
engine. Once the container is full of clippings, the
operator can easily push and raise the lift handle,
releasing the container’s rear door and the container will
pivot towards the ground.
