Safety

WARNING
To avoid personal injury, follow these
procedures:
• Become familiar with all operating and
safety instructions in the Operator's
Manual for the mower before using this
attachment.
• Never remove the discharge tube, bags,
bagger hood, or the chute while the engine
is running.
• Always shut off the engine and wait for all
moving parts to stop before clearing an
obstruction from the bagging system.
• Never do maintenance or repairs while the
engine is running.
WARNING
When the bagger is in operation, the blower
is rotating and can cut off or injure hands and
fingers.
• Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing
and inspecting the blower, and before
unclogging the chute, shut off the engine
and wait for all moving parts to stop.
Remove the key.
• Use a stick or similar object, not your
hands, to remove an obstruction from the
blower and tube.
• Keep your face, hands, feet, and any other
part of your body or clothing away from
concealed, moving, or rotating parts.
WARNING
Debris, such as leaves, grass, or brush can
catch fire. A fire in the engine area can cause
personal injury and property damage.
• Keep the engine and muffler area free of
debris accumulation.
• Take care when opening the bagger cover
to keep debris from falling onto the engine
and muffler area.
• Allow the machine to cool before storing it.
