ASSEMBLY
BEFORE YOU START TO ASSEMBLE THE GRASS CATCHER
Some mower models may need minor modifications before you can mount the grass catcher to the unit. Look carefully at the mower deck on your unit and compare the deck mandrel to the illustrations below. If your mower deck mandrel looks like STYLE "A", your unit is ready - proceed with the grass catcher assembly. If your mower deck mandrel looks like STYLE "B", go to the PREPARATION section in this manual.
