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.

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 engine/blower/blade assembly, is mounted on the right side of the unit. The blower draws grass clippings from the discharge area of the cutter deck up to the aluminum container mounted over the rear portion of the frame. The operator can engage the engine/blower/blade assembly by starting the engine. Once the container is full of clippings, the operator can easily push and raise the lift handle, releasing the container’s rear door and the container will pivot towards the ground.
