Assembly
WARNING: Stop the engine and unplug the spark plug
before any repairs or maintenance operations.
It is necessary to fit the lower handle (2), handle bar (1),
and catcher (5) to the mower.
Assembling the catcher
1. The grass catcher (5) is
supplied in two sections.
Locate the top half on top of
the bottom half and interlock
them together by aligning the
lugs and slots and pushing the
halves together until they click
into place.
Attaching the catcher
1. Lift the discharge guard (16) in
order to position the catcher.
2. While lifting the discharge
guard, align the holes in the
lower half of the catcher with
the hooks on the mower deck
(located under the discharge
chute). Push the catcher onto
the hooks in a downwards direction.
3. Push the catcher down until it locks into place.
4. Release the discharge guard to secure the catcher in
place between the 2 ribbed locking notches.
Note.
Always empty the
catcher before it has
reached maximum capacity,
otherwise it will decrease the
performance of the mower.

4 bolts.
