General Instructions for Grass C atche rs
WARNING
Disengage the electric clutch (PTO). Shut off the engine,
remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop before
attaching, adjusting, or disconnecting any part of the
collection system.
ALWAYS shut off the tractor, disengage the PTO, and allow
all moving parts to stop BEFORE disconnecting or clearing
the tube, or emptying the collector bags.
To reduce fire hazard, keep the engine, tractor and mower
free of grass, leaves, or excess grease. Do not stop or park
tractor over dry leaves, grass, or combustible materials.
Mowing with the Grass Collector
Always operate the riding mower with the throttle at full
speed.
If grass is long, slow the ground speed and cut half the width
of the mower to prevent blockage. Another method is to cut
once with the deck in a high setting and then cut again with
the deck in a low setting.
Do not open the cover with the mower engaged.
If a large amount of cut grass ejects from the bottom of the
deck, the tube may be blocked or the bags may be full. Stop
the rider, disengage the PTO, stop the engine and then empty
grass collector or remove the blockage from the tube.
Before Operation
Remove all the sticks, stones, or other debris, which can get
caught or thrown by the mower blade.
For best results, mow when the grass is dry. Wet grass can
clump and block the mower and the grass collector.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN MOWING, make sure the bottom of
the mower and the bottom of the cover assembly are clear of
grass and debris.
For satisfactory grass collection, air circulation from the
mower deck, through the chute, and into the grass c atche r is
very important.
Make sure there are tight connections between the mower
deck, turbo housing, tubes, and the cover assembly.
Recommended Accessories
Use front counterweights when operating on slopes with a
rear attachment installed. For operation on slopes over 15%
(8.5°), two rear wheel weights can be added.
Remove the Grass Catcher
WARNING
When operating without the grass catcher and catcher
boot / turbo, the mower deflector MUST be installed in the
down position and retained with the spring latch (see the
catcher boot / turbo kit Operator’s Manual).
1. Lift up the cover assembly (M, Figure 19). Remove and
the catcher bags (N).
2. Remove the catcher tube assembly (a) from the cover
assembly.
3. Remove the catcher boot / turbo from the mower deck.
Refer to the catcher boot / turbo kit Operator's Manual.
