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. Set engine speed control to the wide open or
full setting.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Keep The Underside Of The Mower Deck Clean.
Frequent removal of dried grass and dirt will
greatly assist in bagging of the clippings.
5. Maintain Sharp Blade(s) Throughout The Cutting
Season.
Some grass catching attachments
require a “high-lift” blade. See your dealer for
advice on the type of blade(s) needed for your
mower.
6. Operate the mower at a slower ground speed
than when mowing without a grass catching
attachment.
