Tips and Troubleshooting
1.When the bags get full, there will be slight blowout from the front right corner of the deck. Emptying the bags at this point will minimize the potential for the tube to plug.
2.If there is excessive blowout from the deck, check to make sure that the rear screen in the hood is clear of grass build up. It is recommended that the screen and mesh portions of the bags be cleaned regularly to maintain proper air flow. This is especially important in wet conditions.
3.During dry conditions check engine air cleaners and clean cooling fins more frequently. The bagger has been designed to minimize the impact of dust and debris on the mower, but bagging can be a dirty environment.
4.During dry conditions, switching to a lower lift blade may reduce blowout without hurting quality of cut.
5.Maintaining a ground speed that does not pull down the engine RPM will allow for the highest productivity and best quality of cut. Bogging the engine RPM down by going too fast will cause plugging and quality of cut issues.
6.When storing the bagger, it is recommended that any grass build up in the tubes be cleaned out.
