Operation; Positioning The Adjustable Baffle; Opening The Bagger - Toro 78514 Operator's Manual

Operation

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Important: If the machine is on a slope,
chock or block the wheels to prevent the
machine from slowly rolling.
To avoid personal injury, follow these
procedures:
• Become familiar with all operating and
safety instructions in the operator's
manual for your mower before using this
attachment.
• Never remove the bagger or bagger tubes
while the engine is running.
• Always shut the engine off 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.
Without the grass deflector, bagger tubes
or complete bagger assembly mounted in
place, you and others are exposed to blade
contact and thrown debris. Contact with the
rotating mower blade(s) and thrown debris
will cause injury or death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from
the mower because the grass deflector
routes material down toward the turf.
If the grass deflector is ever damaged,
replace it immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the
mower.
• Never try to clear the discharge area or
mower blades unless you move the power
take off (PTO) to off and rotate the
ignition key to off. Also remove the key
and pull the wire off of the spark plug(s).
Positioning the Adjustable
Bafe
