Operating Instructions
Dumping the Catcher
Do not mow or dump grass within 5 feet
(1.5 meters) of an embankment or retaining
wall with drop off.
For dumping, the catcher either tailgate dumps into
a disposal area or dumps into the optional dump
bag. The dump bag is a reusable nylon fabric bag
designed to conveniently move grass clippings from
the catcher to a remote disposal area or container.
Use leg muscles and firm footing when lift-
ing the catcher to dump; avoid bending at
the waist and using back muscles to avoid
back injury.
Tailgate Dumping
1.
Open the back door by lifting on the door handle.
NOTE:
When using the optional 6.7 bushel
catcher, a safety latch locks the door open in
the fully opened position while the catcher is be-
ing dumped to prevent accidental door closure.
2.
Tilt the catcher back to dump by lifting on the
catcher lift handle on the lower front corner of
the catcher.
3.
Lower the catcher smoothly down to the normal
operating position. DO NOT allow the catcher
to drop down.
4.
Close the door by holding the door handle,
working against the spring pressure that holds
the door closed. DO NOT let the door slam
shut by releasing the door before it is closed.
(When using the optional 6.7 bushel catcher,
close the door by holding the door handle with
the left hand and releasing the safety latch on
the door hinge mechanism with the right hand.
The safety latch is released by pressing in on
the top of the latch.)
