Features

• LARGE-CAPACITY COLLECTION BAGS: Three separate, commercial-grade collection bags to store the debris in makes it easier to handle if you are dumping into the back of a truck or wagon. The bags are tapered for easy material dumping. A steel frame attaches the bags to the catcher assembly. And 16-bushels (148 gallons, 19.8 cubic feet) of debris... capacity along with bags designed for optimum debris packing means less time dumping and more time mowing.
• ALL-STEEL BLOWER ASSEMBLY: The all-steel blower assembly is driven by the cutter deck via a self-adjusting belt idler system, rather than an auxiliary engine. That means a more compact design, less maintenance, less initial cost, quieter operation and less overall weight. Thick, 1/4" fan-blade material ensures dependability and long life. Improved blower bearing features a stronger cast-iron housing and easier greasing for long, reliable service.
• FRONT COUNTERWEIGHTS: Front weight system is standard equipment. The front weights counterbalance the weight of the rear-mounted catcher. Each weight weighs 35 lb. The mounting bar weighs approximately 21.5 lb. (Number of weights varies by mower model/size.)
• HARD, MOLDED-PLASTIC BOTTOMS AND STEEL GRAB HANDLE: Hard, molded-plastic bottoms keep the collection bags safe from curb damage, damage from trailers, etc. The steel grab handle makes emptying the bags simple and fast.
• METAL DEBRIS SCREEN: The metal debris screen resides inside the hood of the catcher. The all-metal screen design is resistant to damage from debris as it enters the hopper. The flat design of the screen allows for easy cleaning.
• SIMPLE, YET STRONG, HOOD LATCHES: Positive locking handles keep the hopper lid shut and the grass bags in place, even over bumpy, uneven terrain. They are easy to engage and disengage, even when wearing work gloves.
• VERTICAL BLOWER DESIGN: Compact, vertical blower design adds only 8 1/2" to the width of the mower. That's less space than the discharge chute normally takes! The extremely durable, steel blower housing is angled at the bottom and front to prevent it from damaging uneven terrain. The blower fan is constructed of all steel—no light-duty plastic components.
