INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION

1-1 Introduction

We are pleased to have you as a PECO customer. Your collection system has been designed to give you a low maintenance, simple, and effective way to collect the grass clippings from your mower. This manual is provided to give you the necessary instructions to properly mount and operate the collection system on your mower. Please read this manual thoroughly. Understand what each control is for and how to use it. Observe all safety decal precautions on the machine and noted throughout the manual.

NOTE: All references made to right, left, front, rear, top or bottom are as viewed from the normal operator’s position on the mower.

1-2 Description

The collection system is designed for turf maintenance where there is a need to collect the grass clippings as the mower cuts the turf. It is also good for picking up leaves and twigs in pre-season and post-season clean- up.

The blower, mounted on the right side of the unit, uses a belt and gearbox system from the engine PTO shaft. Drive train protection comes through belt slippage. The blower draws grass clippings from the discharge area of the cutter deck back to the 3 - 3.3 cubic foot collection bags P#(G0002) at the rear portion of the mower frame. The operator can engage the blower with a push of the over-center linkage on the right side of the unit. Once the bags are full with clippings, they can be released to make for easy dumping.

INSTALLATION FOR USE

2-1 Preparation Of Mower

Carefully dismantle shipping box from around the components. Cut retaining straps and separate the parts. The collection system will have various parts located inside. Remove and sort all parts for easy identification.

NOTE: Before each step of assembly it will help to study the exploded drawings on pages 8,9 and 10.

From the underside of the mower engine remove the bolt and bushing from the electric clutch assembly. Replace these parts with the engine pulley assembly P#(A0419), 7/16” lock washer P#(K0053) and 7/16”-20 x 4” HHCS P#(K0359). The added pulley will power the collection system. Note that the center of the hub that is extended should be upward toward the engine (Figure 1). Torque the bolt to 55 ft./lbs. Once pulley is secure, tie hydraulic hoses (Figure 1) away from the pulley with (2) provided zip ties to prevent pulley from making contact with the hose.

Parking Brake Setting

For the added weight of the collection system, the parking brake must be re-adjusted. To do this, first Remove the rear wheels from the mower. Once removed, reset the spring and the stop gap per the dimensions in the diagram (Figure 2). Replace the wheels when completed and torque each bolt to 51-72 ft./lbs.
