Transporting Mower With Catcher
When transporting the mower, with the catcher attached,
to another location on an open trailer or vehicle, the catcher
lid, bags, and tubes must be removed and secured in the
transporting vehicle to prevent them from being blown off.
Converting To Side Discharge Mode
Convert the mower back to the side discharge mode when
catching is not needed.
When converting to side discharge mode it will be
necessary to remove the bags, tubes, and catcher lid from
the mower. The front weights should also be removed. The
catcher frame can remain in place on the mower.
When converting to the side discharge mode it is
necessary to remove the right hand (catching) blade from the
mower. Replace it with the proper side discharge blade.
