Bagging the Clippings
Use the grass bag when you want to collect grass and
leaf clippings from the lawn.
A worn grass bag could allow debris to be
thrown and result in serious personal injury or
death to the operator or bystanders.
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is
damaged, install a new Toro replacement bag.
If the side discharge chute is on the mower, remove it
and lock the side discharge door (refer to Removing the
Side Discharge Chute) before bagging the clippings.
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can
result in serious personal injury.
Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop before leaving the operating position.
Installing the Grass Bag
