Mulching The Clippings; Bagging The Clippings; Discharging The Clippings; Installing The Grass Bag - Toro 29639 Operator's Manual

Mulching the Clippings

Your mower comes from the factory ready to mulch the
grass and leaf clippings back into the lawn.
If the grass bag is on the mower, remove it (refer to
Removing the Grass Bag) before mulching the clippings.

Bagging the Clippings

Use the grass bag when you want to collect grass and
leaf clippings from the lawn.
A worn grass bag could allow small stones
and other similar debris to be thrown in the
operator's or bystander's direction and result in
serious personal injury or death to the operator
or bystanders.
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is
damaged, install a new Toro replacement bag.
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can
result in serious personal injury.
Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop before leaving the operating position.
