erating - Intermediate - Fully Raised).
NOTE: If grass tends to hang up in the catcher
after raising the catcher with the Hi-Dump
®
, “jiggle”
the steering levers and make the tractor bounce a
little to unstick the grass and make it slide out of the
catcher.
NOTE: With the Hi-Dump
®
mechanism in the nor-
mal operating position (catcher down), the catcher
can be manually raised. In the case of a dead
battery, use the auxiliary power terminals to charge/
boost the battery to operate the Hi-Dump
®
.

machine in the NEUTRAL-PARK Position

standers stay clear when the Hi-Dump

er with Hi-Dump
®
. Do not attempt to use
the optional dump bag or any other bag
with the Hi-Dump
®
.

vice or repair work. Remember to DISEN-
GAGE the lock before resuming operation
