Clearing Obstructions from the Bagger 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. • The maximum drawbar pull is 36 kg (80 lb). • Excessive drawbar pull may cause hydrostatic transmission failure. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage the blade control switch. Move the motion control levers outward to the neutral lock position, stop the engine, remove the key, set the parking brake and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating position. Check the grass bags and empty them if they are full.
PAGE 17
reduce the load on the engine and reduces the chance of plugging the chute and discharge tube. Bagging Speed Most often you will bag with the mower throttle in the Fast position and drive at a normal ground speed. However, in extremely dry and dusty grass, you may want to slightly reduce the throttle speed and increase the ground speed of the mower. The bagging system may plug if you drive too fast and the engine speed gets too slow. On hills it may be necessary to slow the mower ground speed.
PAGE 18
Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 10 hours • Inspect the bagger. Before each use or daily Before storage • Clean the bagger. • Inspect the bagger. • Clean the bagger. CAUTION If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders.
