Handlebar Height

The handlebar height can be adjusted to either one of the two height
positions. See “Handlebar Setup” on page 44 for details.

Grass Bag

A lawn mower works like a vacuum cleaner; it blows air through the
bag, which traps the grass clippings. Always empty the grass bag
before it becomes filled to the limit of its capacity. Bagging
performance will diminish after the bag becomes about 90% full. Also,
the bag is easier to empty when not packed full.

Inspection

Inspect the grass bag before use. Check for holes, tears, and
excessive wear. The grass bag does wear during normal use, and will
eventually require replacement (page 28).

Installation

1. Raise the rear discharge

guard and remove the mulch-
ing plug. Hook the grass bag
frame onto the mower deck as
shown.

2. Release the rear discharge

guard to secure the grass bag
in place.

Removal

1. Raise the rear discharge

guard, grasp the grass bag
handle, and remove the grass
bag.

2. Release the rear discharge

guard.

3. When the grass bag is clear of the rear discharge, you can lift the

grass bag through the handlebars or remove it from the rear of the
mower below the handlebar.
