ADVANTAGE CUTTER DECK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove all packaging materials. Lay out the mounting hardware and the catcher
assembly parts for easy access. Prepare the work area making sure that it is a
clean, safe environment.
2 Remove the discharge chute from the cutter deck. Retain all mounting hardware as
the discharge chute must be reinstalled whenever the grass catcher is removed.
3. If you are installing the catcher to a machine with an Advantage cutter deck,
with a serial number of 8619999 or lower, you must also install the filler plate
(item 12, Figure 3, page 5) to the cutter deck. If the machine serial number is
8910001 or higher, proceed to step 6.
4. Hold the filler plate (item 12, Figure 3) to the front of the cutter deck as shown in
Figure 1. Center punch the two hole locations in the cutter deck. Drill the holes at
the marked locations using a 1/8" drill bit, then finish drilling using a 9/32" drill bit.
5. Install the deck filler plate to the inside front of the Advantage deck using (2)
1/4-20 x 3/4" bolts and (2) 1/4-20 elastic stop nuts.
