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.
Fre-
quent 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.
