end of each handle arm with the short posts that extend
from the side plates of the mower base (Fig. 3).
4. Pull both sides of the lower handle bars over the posts
on the mower body. Press inward on the handle bars to
ensure a secure fit over the posts.
Fitting the grass catcher
1. Hook the pre-assembled grass catcher onto the mower
body by connecting the hooks to both ends of the steel
shaft (Fig. 4).
2. Secure the locking strap on the grass catcher to the center
bar on the lower handle of the mower. Adjust the strap to
an appropriate height so that the grass catcher does not
rub against the ground while mowing or transporting the
unit (Fig. 5).
