uneasy on it, do not mow it

DO:

Mow up and down slopes, not across

Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc

Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps+ Uneven terrain could

overturn the machine Tafl grass can hide obstacles.

Use slew speed Choose a low gear so that you will not have

to stop or shift while on the slope

• Followthe man ufacturer's recommendations for wheel weights

or counterweights to improve stability

Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments

These can change the stability of the machine

Keep all movement on the slopes slowand gradual Do not

make sudden changes in speed or direction+

Avoid starting or stopping on a slope If tires lose traction,

disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the

slope

DO NOT:

Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly

end gradually downhill, if possible

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. "['he

mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of

a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

Do not mow on wet g+:ass Reduced traction could cause

sliding

Do not try to siabilize the machine by putting your foot on the

ground

Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes

III. CHILDREN

(See Figs. 1 & 2)

Use Hardware - - GROUP "A"

Only one set of hardware in GROUP "B" will be used to

mount the rear mounting bracket. To determine which set

is correct for your tractor, check to see if there are (2) two

upper corner ribs on each side of drawbar, tf your tractor

has the upper corner ribs, use the (4) four self tapping bolts

If your tractor does not have the corner ribs, use the set of

(4) four bolts and Iocknuts

SELF TAPPING BOLTS

• Assemble the mounting bracket, lanced tabs towards

bottom, using the four formed holes on the drawbar

NOTE: Start the self tapping bolts into holes on the

drawbar at least two full turns and remove. This will make it

OPERATION

@

TIPS FOR IMPROVED BAGGING

OPERATION:

Follow the mower operation instructions in your tractor

owner's manual

When operating your grass catcher on a lawn where grass

and leaf bagging equipment has not been used, you are

picking up thatch and debris that has accumulated for long

periods of time. The amount collected and the total time of

operation may be greater than you will experience with

regular use of your grass catcher_

Always run throttle at full speed when bagging°

Select a gear low enough to give good mower cutting

performance, good quality cut and good bagging per-

formance

NOTE: It may be necessary to overlap width of cut to suit

your conditions

•If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice. The

first time relatively high, the second time to desired

height

°Use left hand side of mower for trimming.

°Plastic trash bags can be inserted insidegrass catcher

containers for ease of debris disposal. To remove the

plastic trash bags when full:

a. Raise seat. Unlatch and raise cover.

b. Remove one container at a time by grasping con-

tainer handles and pulling toward the rear, off of the

tube rails_

c. With the container resting on the ground, close and

secure the top of the plastic lawn bag.

d. Tip the container on its side and slide the filled bag

from the container.

e. Install a new plastic lawn bag with the edges of the

bag draped over upper lip of the Container (for

replacement bags refer to REPLACEMENT

PARTS)_

f. Repeat for other container.

g. Reinstall containers making sure right container

overlaps left container at center support.

h. Close cover and secure latch over center support

tube.

Avoid cutting wet grass or in the morning while the dew

is still heavy. Grass clippings collected under these

conditions tend to be sticky and adhere to the walls of

the flow path causing clogging.

Your bagger is equipped with a full bagger indicator. As

the bags become full, movement of the wheel will slow

down and/or stop, indicatingthat the bags are full or the

chutes have become clogged. Care should be taken

not to damage the parts and that the wheel spins freely

at the beginning of each use

If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass or leaves,

it is an indication that clogging has occurred in the

_YsStemor that the grass catcher containers are full.

ually this is indicated by the stopped movement of

the full bagger indicator.

a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage the

parking brake and stop the engine.

-Raise seal Unlatch and raise cover.

b,

- Slide out containers and dispose of clippings.

-Replace containers, close cover, and latch.

Unlatch chutes and check for clogging

Remove all debris in chutes.

Reassemble and latch chutes

C. Check to insure full bagger indicator has not be-

come clogged.

- The air passage hole must be clear of debris

Gently insert a small twig or wire into passage-

way to clear_

CAUTION

•Do not operate mower with grass catcher

partially installed.

•Disengage blades and stop engine before

leaving tractor seat to empty containers,

unclogging chutes, etc.

oClose cover before starting.

oDisengage mower when crossing drive-

ways or gravel surfaces and other areas

where thrown objects could be a hazard.

° Do not attempt to vacuum up cans or other

potentially hazardous projectiles,

11

CUSTOME RESPONSiBiLiTiES

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS STORAGE

Always observe safety rules when performing any mainte-

nance,

° Before each use check for loose fasteners.

• Clean unit thoroughly after each use.

BLADE CARE

For best results mower blades must be kept sharp, Re-

place bent or damaged blades

o See BLADE CARE instructions in your tractor owner's

manual.

When grass catcher is to be stored for a period of time,

clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grass, leaves, etc. Store

in a clean, dry place,

I& CAUTION: Do not leave grass in bagger

containers, Empty containers after each

use and before storing. Failure to do so

may result in spontaneous combustion

which could develop into a fire.

TO REMOVE GRASS CATCHER

CAUTION: BEFORE PERFORMING ANY

MAINTENANCE , SERVICE OR ADJUST-

MENTS:

• Depress clutch brake pedal fully and set

parking brake.

oPlace gearshift/motion control lever in

"NEUTRAL" position.

° Place clutch control in "DISENGAGED"

position.

Turn ignition key to "OFF" position,

• Make sure blades and all moving parts

have completely stopped.

o Disconnect spark plug wire(s) from spark

plug(s) and place wire where it cannot come

in contact with plug.

Reverse appropriate steps in ASSEMBLY section of this

manual

CAUTION: Grass catcher components aresubject to wear, damage and deteriora-

tion, which could expose moving parts or

allow objects to be thrown. Frequently

check components and replace with

manufacturer's recommended parts, when

necessary.
