The grassbag is designed to collect grass clippings.
To achieve best grass collection performance, mow in dry operating
conditions.
Recognise that when the grassbag is full the airflow stops and the
grassbag deflates.
Grassbag attachment: Raise the rear deflector and lower the grass-
bag through the handlebar aperture to connect onto the upper
mounting points. Lower the grassbag to rest against the rear of the
mower. Ensure grassbag flap is closed. Finally lower the rear
deflector to rest against the top of the grassbag.
Grassbag removal: Raise the rear deflector and lift the grassbag
through the handlebar aperture and away from the mower. Finally
lower the rear deflector to rest against the rear of the mower.
Grassbag emptying: To empty the grassbag, pour out the grass
clippings and shake the grassbag vigorously to clean the airways.
Good grass collection depends on good air flow through the
grassbag. When collecting grass clippings it is important that the
grassbag is emptied regularly to prevent blockages and engine
overloading.
