DESCRIPTION

1-1 Introduction

Your grass 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 grass collection system is designed for turf
maintenance where there is a need to collect the grass
clippings as the mower cuts the turf. It is also used for
picking up leaves in pre-season and post-season clean-
up. The blower, mounted on the right side of the unit,
uses a belt and gearbox system from the engine PTO
shaft. Drive train protection comes through belt slippage.
The blower draws grass clippings from the discharge
area of the cutting deck back to the (2) - 4 cubic foot
collection bags P#(G0003) at the rear portion of the
mower frame. The operator can engage the blower with
a spring-lock engagement handle on the right side of the
unit. Once the bags are full with clippings, they can be
easily released for dumping.
