OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOWING WITH A
GRASS CATCHER ATTACHMENT
In order to achieve optimum performance when mowing with
a grass catching attachment, please read and follow the tips
listed below.
1. Read and follow the installation instructions that are
included with your grass catcher.
2. Set engine speed control to the wide open or full setting.
3. Do not attempt to cut grass when it is wet. Wet grass will
clog both the underside of the deck and the attachment
chutes. Empty bags often to prevent plugging.
4. If the grass is tall, place the mower deck cut height
selector in the top or second notch. “Initially” overlap
cutting swaths instead of a full swath with each pass.
5. Keep the underside of the mower deck clean. Frequent
removal of dried grass and dirt will greatly assist in
bagging of the clippings. Never, under any
circumstances, should you place hands or feet under
the mower deck or in the chute while blades or
impeller are still turning.
6. Operate the mower at a slower ground speed than when
mowing without a grass catching attachment.
