Excel Two Bag Catcher. This manual will provide

1-2 Description

The grass collection system is designed for turf 
maintenance where there is a need to collect the grass 
clippings as the mower cuts the turf. It is also used for 
picking up leaves in pre-season and post-season clean-
up. The Peco blower, mounted on the right side of the 
unit, uses a belt and gearbox system from the engine 
PTO shaft. Drive train protection comes through belt 
slippage. The blower draws grass clippings from the 
discharge area of the cutting deck back to the (2) 
collection bags at the rear portion of the mower frame. 
The operator can engage the blower with a spring-lock 
engagement handle on the right side of the unit. Once 
the bags are full with clippings, they can be easily 
released for dumping.
