Mowing with the Grass Bag
DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
A worn grass bag could allow small stones and
other similar debris to be thrown in operator's
or bystander's direction.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Thrown objects can cause serious personal
injury or death to the operator or bystanders.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is
damaged, install a new Toro replacement bag.
Cut the grass until the bag is full.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overfill the bag.
Removing the Grass Bag
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Raise the discharge door handle and move it forward
until the locking pin contacts the catch (Fig. 14).
3. Grasp the handle at the front and the rear of the bag
and lift the bag off the lawn mower.
4. Gradually tip the bag forward to empty the clippings.
5. To install the bag, refer to steps 3 through 5 of
Installing the Grass Bag earlier in this section.
DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Thrown objects may result if the discharge
door does not close completely.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Thrown objects can cause serious personal
injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
If the discharge door cannot be closed because
grass clippings clog the discharge area, stop the
engine and gently move the discharge door
handle back and forth until the door can be
closed completely. If door still cannot be closed,
remove the obstruction with a stick, not your
hand.
