OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOWING WITH A
GRASS CATCHER ATTACHMENT (continued)
7. Maintain sharp blades throughout the cutting season.
Some grass catching attachments require a "high-lift"
blade. See your dealer for advice on the type of blade(s)
needed for your mower.
8. Some mowing applications or the use of grass catchers
may require that an additional weight kit be fitted to the
mower to counter the weight of grass in the bags. Please
consult with your dealer for more information regarding
installation and adding weight to the box.
WARNING
!
• Watch for low hanging branches or other obstacles that
might hit the catcher top while turning or backing the
mower.
• Use care when backing to avoid pushing the grass bags
into the frame or "hot" exhaust muffler of the engine. Fire
could result.
• Disengage blade and stop engine prior to clearing grass
from either the discharge chute or grass catcher
components.
• Do not operate the mower with the grass catching
attachment partially removed. Operator or bystanders
could be injured by thrown objects.
• Keep all attachment bolts tight.
• Important: Do not leave clippings in the bags while the
mower is stored. Damp grass clippings are a fire hazard
if left in the bag.
Failure to observe the following instructions
could result in serious injury or death.
