MOWING WITH GRASS COLLECTION

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.

WARNING - PREVENT ACCIDENTS : ALWAYS check the condition of the grassbag for signs of damage. Replace a damaged grassbag immediately. DO NOT operate the mower with a damaged grassbag. ALWAYS stop the engine and dis-

connect the spark plug lead before attempting to remove a grass

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.
