Removing and fitting the Net
(S & T Series fitted with Electric Net)
(Fig. 21)
First turn off the engine. When removing the net, we
suggest you employ the assistance of another person.
1. Partially open the PGC net (100mm (4”)).
Disconnect the net rod by pulling back on the
sprung locking tube and uncoupling it from the
pin. The locking tube should then be attached to
the securing pin. The process should be repeated
on the other side.
2. Disconnect the second locking tube from its pin.
3. With one person standing on each side of the
collector net, lift the net off the bag ears.
4. Reverse the above operations for fitting
the net.

PGC Connection
(Tractors fitted with Electric Net)
(Fig. 22)
First turn off the engine. To connect the Powered Grass
Collector (PGC) to the tractor, ensure that both are on
an even surface with the locking levers on the collector
facing the Lift Arms on the tractor. Lift the seat and the
PTO flap so that both are resting in the upright position.
Move the Collector manually to the tractor; lower the
Lift Arms using the button on the dash console.
At the end of each Lift Arm you will find a Locating
Lug. Slide the Channels on either side of the Powered
Collector over the Lugs but do not engage the Locating
Lever yet. Ensure that the Rubber Flap at the opening
of the PGC locates on top of the Transmission Grass
Deflector.
Net Empty Plug
(where fitted)
(Fig. 23)
If fitted, connect the net empty plug to the socket as
shown in Fig. 23, to disconnect, reverse this procedure.
This plug MUST BE FITTED before attempting to use
your Powered Grass Collector.
