Operation

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine
from the normal operating position.
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
top, or the chute 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.
WARNING
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.
• Always install the grass deflector when removing
the bagger and changing to side discharge
mode.
• If the grass deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately. The grass deflector routes material
down toward the turf.
• 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).
• Turn off the engine before unclogging the
discharge chute.

Emptying the Grass Bags

Be careful when lifting or handling a grass bag that is full. To
empty the grass bags:
1. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage the
blade control switch.
2. Move the motion control levers outward to the neutral
lock position, stop the engine, remove the key, set the
parking brake and wait for all moving parts to stop
before leaving the operating position.
3. Open (raise) the bagger top (Figure 24).
