  • Page 41: Recommendations For Mowing

    Operating Instructions RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOWING IMPORTANT: Operate the engine at full speed when mowing, to allow the engine to produce full horsepower and to increase efficiency of the engine cooling system. Keep the mower deck and discharge chute clean. Mow with sharp blades. A dull blade tears the grass (resulting in poor lawn appearance) and uses extra power (slowing the mowing speed).
  • Page 42: Recommendations For Tilt-Up Deck Operation/Transport

    Operating Instructions RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TILT-UP DECK OPERATION/TRANSPORT To avoid potential deck and/or tractor damage while using the tilt-up deck, the following recommenda- tions are offered: Do not move the tractor with the deck in the tilt- up position since both the roller wheels (on the back of the deck) and the GHS discharge chute may be damaged by moving the tractor.

  • Page 44: General Information

    Operating Instructions General Information The Grass Handling System (GHS) consists of a rear discharge mower deck connected to a 10 in. (25 cm) blower and a rear mounted grass catcher with 7.0 bushel (246 liters) capacity or optional 9.5 bushel (335 liters) capacity. The GHS blower oper- ates any time the mower blade clutch is engaged and moves grass through the rear discharge deck chute into the grass catcher.
  • Page 45: Clogging Checklist

    Operating Instructions Clogging Checklist In case of clogging, there will be a distinct change in the sound of the blower, i.e., the blower sound will stop. Also, the mower deck will begin to leave a trail of grass clippings. When this occurs, stop the engine, disconnect the electrical plug on the fuel shut-off solenoid, and make sure all movement has stopped before attempting to unclog.
  • Page 46: Using The Tilt-Up Deck

    Operating Instructions Check that the openings in the removable air exhaust screen in the grass catcher are not plugged. If the screen is clogged, refer to Cleaning the GHS Exhaust Screen in this section. Remember, anything that restricts airflow or material flow along the entire path from the mower deck to the grass catcher can cause clogging.
