INTRODUCTION AND
DESCRIPTION
1-1 Introduction
We are pleased to have you as a PECO customer. Your
collection system has been designed to give you a low
maintenance, simple, and effective way to collect the
grass clippings from your mower. This manual is
provided to give you the necessary instructions to
properly mount and operate the collection system on
your mower. Please read this manual thoroughly.
Understand what each control is for and how to use it.
Observe all safety decal precautions on the machine and
noted throughout the manual. NOTE: All references
made to right, left, front, rear, top or bottom are as
viewed from the normal operator's position on the
mower.
1-2 Description
The collection system is designed for turf maintenance
where there is a need to collect the grass clippings as
the mower cuts the turf. The collection system is also
good for picking up leaves and twigs in pre-season and
post-season clean-up. The engine/blower/blade
assembly, is mounted on the right side of the unit. The
blower draws grass clippings from the discharge area of
the cutter deck back to the (3) 4 cubic foot collection
bags P#(G0003) at the rear portion of the mower frame.
The operator can engage the engine/blower/blade
assembly by starting the engine. Once the bags are full,
they can be released for easy dumping.

INSTALLATION FOR USE
2-1 Preparation Of Mower
Carefully dismantle wooden the shipping crate from
around the components. Cut the retaining straps and
separate the parts. The collection system will have
various parts located inside. Remove and sort all parts
for easy identification. NOTE: Before each step of
assembly it will help to study the part drawings on pages
13 through 15. Remove the bumper from the rear frame
of the mower before proceeding.
G-SERIES
Figure 2-1a
On the rear right side of the mower chassis drill two
13/32" holes. There are several ways of doing this, the
best is to remove the bolt that connects the lower rear
bumper to the mower's chassis (Figure 2-1b) and
loosely fasten the right lower frame leg assembly
P#(A0679) with the existing bolt and nut to use as a
template. Use a center punch to mark the holes, then
remove the right lower frame leg assembly. Another way
to mark the holes is to use the full scale drill template to
center-punch the holes (Page 21), or by using the
dimensions provided on the drill template for laying out
the holes. We recommend when laying out the holes to
use a square and a metal scribe. NOTE: For the F-
Series mower, follow the instructions listed for the G-
Series, but do not remove the rear bumper.
2-2 Left and Right Lower Frame Leg
Installation
Secure the left lower frame leg P#(A0681) and the right
lower frame leg P#(A0679) to the rear frame of the
mower, using (2) 3/8"-16 x 1" HHCS P#(K1191), (2) 3/8"-
16 nylon flange locknuts P#(K2038) (PER LEG) and
