1-2 Description

The grass collection system is designed for turf
maintenance where there is a need to collect the grass
clippings as the mower cuts the turf. It is also used for
picking up leaves and in pre-season and post-season
clean-up. The blower, mounted on the right side of the
unit, uses a belt and gearbox system from the engine
PTO shaft. Drive train protection comes through belt
slippage. The blower draws grass clippings from the
discharge area of the cutter deck back to the 12 cubic
foot aluminum box at the rear portion of the mower
frame. The operator can engage the blower with a push
of the over-center linkage on the right side of the unit.
Once the container is full, the operator can easily push
and raise the dump handle, opening the rear door on the
container and pivoting the box to the ground. Once
empty, the operator can easily lower and pull the dump
handle, pivoting the box back into position and closing
the door.
Requires installation of included weight kit
(A1213) along with the additional weight
kit 59A30037150 (A1149).
Refer to Section 2-21 & 2-22 in this manual
for weight kit installation instructions.
