Installing the Weights
CAUTION
The bagger changes the weight distribution of the
machine. Operating the machine without the front
weights may cause an unstable condition which
could result in a loss of control.
Ensure the front weights are properly installed
before operating the machine with the bagger
attachment.
1.
Install the weight-mounting brackets to the under
side of the frame using two 3/8 x 1 inch bolts and
two 3/8 inch locknuts.

Important: Whenever you remove the bagger
attachment, remember to remove the front
weights to return the proper stability to the
machine.
