2 INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL

Lift the grass catcher up so that you have good access to the rear axle of the mower.

Turn off the mower and engage the parking brake. Secure the grass catcher in place against falling using

an appropriate support.

Mount the hitch to the beam (1) between the rear axle, where there are two holes prepared for the

hitch bolts. Secure the bolts with nuts. Tightening torque: 83 Nm.

When using the hitch with a trailer intended for a tow ball, slide the supplied tow ball with the pin

into the hole in the hitch and secure in place using a nut. When using a trailer with a pin, insert the

pin of the trailer into the hole.

2.2 REMOVING THE GRASS CATCHER AND REAR PLATE

In the event that you are unsure about the procedure for the removal of the grass catcher and the rear

plate or you have insufficient equipment, tools or experience, please do not hesitate to contact the

vendor of the mower for assistance.

In the event that it is necessary to remove the grass catcher and the rear plate, proceed as follows:

Remove the screws to remove the lid of the grass catcher. Remove the top part of the linear motor

off the grass catcher brackets by sliding the cotters (1) out of the pins (2) and taking out the pins.

Unscrew the bolts (2) and slide the grass catcher out of the holes (1) in the rear plate. When sliding

it out, it may be necessary to slightly stretch out the side metal sheets of the plate.

Disconnect the cable of the linear motor and slide it out of the hole in the rear plate. Then fasten the cable

to the grass catcher lifting/lowering arms.

Remove the cover (1) of the sensor (2) by rotating the click-in (3) by 90° and disconnect the bundle

from the sensor. Then fasten the bundle to the lifting arms so that it does not get in the way.

Disconnect the plate from the top (1) and bottom (2) grass catcher lifting/lowering arms by removing

the retainer ring and washers from pins (3) and (4). Fasten the bottom arms to the top arms using

a suitable tape or rope.

Slide the rear plate with the small chute out the grass ejection chute. Store the plate with the small chute

in a suitable, dry location.
