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 cleanup.
Section II
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:
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 ,
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 . 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.
Before each step of assembly it will help to
P#(A0419)
(Figure 1)
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.

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.

2-3 Attaching Frame Mount Brackets
To mount the frame brackets which support the bagger
unit, you must first remove the existing rear bumper.
This can be done by removing the three bolts and nuts
attaching the bumper to each side. Set the nuts and
bolts aside as they will be used to mount the frame
brackets. See Figure 4 for bracket orientation. Mount the
left frame mount bracket (Figure 5) by using three of the
existing bolts and three of the existing nuts. Tighten nuts
and bolts. The right frame mount bracket will mount
along with the PTO arm assembly (Figure 6). Align the
hole pattern on the side of the PTO arm assembly to the
hole pattern on the right frame mount bracket and
mower frame. Place each of the three remaining bolts
one at a time through the PTO Arm assembly, the right
frame bracket and through the existing holes of the
mower frame. Fasten the upper hole by using (1) 3/8”-16
x 1” HHCS P#(K1191) and (1) 3/8”-16 flange nut
P#(K1215). Tighten nuts and bolts.
