Cleaning the GHS Exhaust Screen
To remove the grass catcher screen for cleaning,
open the catcher door, push forward and pull down
on the grass catcher screen knobs (on either side of
the screen), and slide the screen out. Use a high
pressure washer or water spray and brush to clean
the screen.
Keeping the catcher exhaust screen clean and open
is essential to good performance of the catching
system. In some mowing conditions, e.g., wet and
dirty, it will be necessary to clean the screen fre-
quently to avoid clogging the mower deck, blower,
and chutes due to airflow restriction.

Dumping the Catcher
DANGER
Do not mow or dump grass within 5 feet
(1.5 meters) of an embankment or retaining
wall with drop off.
For dumping, the catcher either tailgate dumps into
a disposal area or dumps into the optional dump
bag. The dump bag is a
reusable nylon fabric bag
designed to conveniently move grass clippings from
the catcher to a remote disposal area or container.
CAUTION
Use leg muscles and firm footing when lift-
ing the catcher to dump; avoid bending at
the waist and using back muscles in order
to prevent back injury.
Tailgate Dumping
1. Open the back door by lifting on the door handle.
2. Tilt the catcher back to dump by lifting on the
catcher lift handle on the lower front corner of
the catcher.
3. Lower the catcher smoothly down to the normal
operating position. DO NOT allow the catcher
to drop down - the gas spring, that holds the
catcher in the raised position, is not a shock
absorber for lowering the catcher.
4. Close the door by pulling down on the door
handle. The door should close smoothly with
the assistance of the gas springs. If the
dampening springs are not functioning proper-
ly, they should be replaced to prevent the
door from slamming closed and possibly
causing a pinch point.
