General Operating Instructions
BEFORE OPERATION
Clear the lawn of all sticks, stones, wire and other
debris which may be caught or thrown by the mower
blades.
Check grass condition. If wet, wait until later in the
day. If grass is wet, the grass catcher is likely to
become plugged.
For efficient bagging, air circulation under the
mower deck, through the chute and into the bag is
very important.
For this reason, BEFORE YOU BEING MOWING you
should make certain this underside of the mower and
the underside of the catcher lid are free from grass
and debris.
Make sure that there is a snug fit between mower
deck, blower housing, tubes and grass catcher covers.
MOWING WITH THE DOUBLE /
TRIPLE CATCHER
Always operate with throttle at full speed when
mowing.
Always wear hearing protection when operating
grass catcher.
Grass should be cut often, and not too short. If grass
is too long or lush it may be necessary to keep ground
speed to a minimum or to cut only half the width of the
mower to prevent clogging. If grass is long, operate
with mower in high cutting position for first pass,
cutting again in a lower position on a second pass.
Do not open the cover with mower engaged.
If a large amount of cut grass is spilling out from
under deck, the tube may be plugged or the bags
may be full— discontinue mowing, stop the rider,
disengage the PTO and then empty the catcher or
clear the tube.
AFTER OPERATION
Remove any debris from the screen on the underside
of the lid. Note: The lid screen can be partially
removed for easier cleaning and should be cleaned
regularly.
The blower housing and tube should be removed for
cleaning.
Inspect the grass bags for wear or damage. Make
sure that there is a snug fit between mower deck,
blower housing, tubes, and grass catcher cover.
STORING THE GRASS CATCHER
Clean the grass catcher thoroughly using a mild
detergent (other products may damage the tube).
Remove any debris from the the screen on the
underside of the lid. The screen can be partially
removed for easier cleaning.
If paint has been scratched on metal parts, touch
up with paint, or apply a thin film of oil to prevent
corrosion.
Store in a dry area. Hang the catcher and catcher
bags to dry thoroughly before storing for a long period
of time. Always store away from moisture.
MOWING WITH THE BLOWER
For operation without the blower, the deflector must
be properly installed in the down position.
To remove the blower, reverse the installation steps.
