DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
If the side opening cover is not securely
clamped in place, the lawn mower can throw
debris out of the side opening.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Thrown debris can cause serious personal
injury or death to the operator or bystanders.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always ensure that either the side opening
cover is closed and locked in place by the side
cover clamp or that the side discharge chute is
securely seated in place before starting the lawn
mower.
13. Tighten all four screws and the long knob.
14. Open and close the tunnel door to ensure that it moves
freely (Fig. 35).
Installing the Grass Bag
Note:
To recycle grass instead of catch it, do not install
the grass bag and ensure that the discharge tunnel door is
closed and secured.

DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Thrown objects may result if the discharge
door does not close completely.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Thrown objects can cause serious personal
injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
If the discharge door cannot be closed because
grass clippings clog the discharge area, stop the
engine and gently move the discharge door
handle back and forth until the door can be
closed completely. If door still cannot be closed,
remove the obstruction with a stick; not your
hand.
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Ensure that the discharge door handle is fully forward
(door closed) as shown in Figure 37.

3. Fit the bag door opening over the discharge tunnel
opening as shown in Figure 37.
The bag door latches should straddle the door handle,
and the bag rod hook should be in front of the handle
bracket.
4. Set the rear of the bag frame onto the lower handle.
5. Pull the handle rearward until the handle latch locks in
the notch in the bag door latch (Fig. 38).
