Attachments; Grass Bag (Standard) - Honda HRC215 Owner's Manual

4. ATTACHMENTS
Honda HRC215 mowers are provided with a grass bag as standard equipment.
You can operate the mower with the grass bag (or optional hard-shell grass
catcher) installed to collect the grass clippings, or with the grass bag removed
(or optional side-discharge chute installed) if you wish to leave the grass
clippings on the lawn. When attachments are removed, the discharge guard
automatically closes to protect the operator from objects that may be thrown
by the blade
NOTE:
l
When mowing without attachments, the closed discharge guard will trap
more grass under the cutter deck, and the cutter deck may clog when
mowing grass that is thick or tall. If clogging occurs, mow more frequently,
cut a narrower swath, and/or select a slower drive speed. You may also
need to raise the mower's cutting height.
l
If you wish to leave the grass clippings on the lawn, we recommend using
the optional, side discharge chute (see page 14).
