Toro 74433 Operator's Manual page 18

Emptying the Collection System
Once the collection bag fills with enough grass to cover
one or both of the sensors and break the infrared beam
a beeping alarm will sound to alert the operator. The
alarm shuts off once the blade control switch is turned
Off. If one or both sensors are unplugged the mower
blades will not engage.
The machine is equipped with an alarm that sounds to
notify the operator the collection bag is full.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the
blade control switch and move the motion control
levers to the brake position.
2. Move the throttle to Slow.
3. Raise the collection bag by extending the DFS lever
and then pulling down (Figure 16).

In the event that the collection bag alarm goes off and
the bag is less than full, the sensors should be cleared
of any clippings or debris that be blocking the beam.
Raise the collection bag and wipe off the faces of the
sensors with a soft cloth.
Important: You can wash the machine with mild
detergent and water. Do not pressure wash the
machine. Avoid excessive use of water, especially
near the control panel, engine, hydraulic pumps,
and motors.

Collection Bag
The collection bag is retained in the engine cover by
seating the lever side pin into a holed bracket in the
right hand side of the engine cover. To remove, raise
the bag up and first lift the pin in the open notch up
and away from the cover. Then slide the lever side pin
out the bracket until the bag is clear of the machine.
When installing, seat this side first and then place the
opposing pin in the open notch in the engine cover.
Allow the bag to swing down, into place.
