1.1 INTRODUCTION

Your mower was built to the highest standards in the

industry. However, the prolonged life and maximum

efficiency of your mower depends on you following the

operating, maintenance and adjustment instructions in

this manual.

The mower is designed to bag, mulch or side discharge

the grass clippings. During the assembly process at the

factory the mower has been set up to bag the grass

clippings with grass collection baffles installed. If the

mower has been converted to either mulch or side

discharge, the grass collection baffles must be reinstalled

on the cutter deck prior to bagging the grass clippings.

See Figure 1-1 for grass collection baffle location.

result in poor bagging perfomance.
