1-2 Description
We are pleased to have you as a PeCo customer. Your
collection system has been designed to give you a low
maintenance, simple, and effective way to collect the
grass clippings from your ZT mower. This manual is
provided to give you the necessary instructions to
properly mount and operate the collection system on
your ZT mower. Please read this manual thoroughly.
Understand what each control is for and how to use it.
Observe all safety decal precautions on the machine and
noted throughout the manual.
Note: all references made to right, left, front, rear, top or
bottom are as viewed from the normal operator’s
position on the ZT mower.
The collection system is designed for turf maintenance
where there is a need to collect the grass clippings as
the ZT mower cuts the turf. It is also good for picking up
leaves and twigs in pre-season and post-season clean-
up.
The engine/blower/blade assembly, is mounted on the
right side of the unit. The blower draws grass clippings
from the discharge area of the cutter deck up to the
aluminum container mounted over the rear portion of the
ZT frame. The operator can engage the
engine/blower/blade assembly by starting the engine.
Once the container is full of clippings, the operator can
easily push and raise the lift handle, releasing the
container’s rear door and the container will pivot towards
the ground.
