Safety
Please carefully read all of the safety
•
Thoroughly inspect the area where the
equipment is to be used and remove all
stones, sticks, wires, bones, and other
foreign objects which may damage the
equipment or cause personal injury to the
operator or bystanders.
instructions and decals in the safety section.
Knowing this information could help you,
your family, pets or bystanders avoid injury.
Training
•
Regard the Exmark Bagger as a piece
of power equipment and teach this
regard to all who operate this unit.
Operation
Although hazard control and accident
prevention are partially dependent upon the
design and configuration of the equipment,
these factors are also dependent upon the
awareness, concern, prudence, and proper
training of the personnel involved in the
operation, transport, maintenance, and
storage of the equipment. It is essential that
all Operator Safety Mechanisms be
connected and in operating condition prior to
use for mowing. Refer to the Operator’s
Manual for the mower for additional hazard
control and accident prevention information.
•
Before operating your Bagger, carefully
read and understand this manual and
the operator’s manual for your mower in
their entirety. Familiarize yourself with
the controls and the proper use of the
equipment. If the operator(s) or
mechanic(s) can not read English, it is
the owner’s responsibility to explain this
material to them.
•
•
Do not allow operation of this machine
by untrained personnel. Never allow
children, teenagers, or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the
mower. Local regulations may restrict
the age of the operator.
Think Safety First
Avoid mowing while people, especially
children, or pets, are nearby. Keep in
mind that the operator or user is
responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their
property.
To avoid personal injury, follow these
procedures:
•
•
•
Become familiar with all operating
and safety instruction in the
Operator’s manual for the mower
before using this attachment.
Preparation
•
Never remove the discharge tube,
bags, bagger top or discharge
deflector while the engine is
running.
Evaluate the terrain to determine what
accessories and attachments are
needed to properly and safely perform
the job. Only use accessories and
attachments approved by Exmark.
Always shut the engine off, engage
parking brake, wait for all moving
parts to stop and remove key
before clearing an obstruction from
the bagging system.
•
•
The use of personal protective
equipment, such as (but not limited to)
protection for the eyes, ears, feet, and
head is recommended.
•
•
Never do maintenance or repairs
while the engine is running.
While mowing, always wear substantial
footwear and long trousers. Do not
operate equipment when barefoot or
when wearing open sandals.
Never operate the lawn mower
unless you install a mulch plate,
discharge deflector, or entire grass
collection system.

Slopes
•
•
Progressively greater care is needed as
the slope increases.
•
Use EXTREME caution when mowing
and/or turning on slopes as loss of
traction and/or tip-over could occur. The
operator is responsible for safe
operation on slopes.
Always avoid sudden starting or stopping
on a slope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blades and proceed slowly
off the slope.
•
•
Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill.
Mower may tip backwards.
Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes
can cause sliding and loss of control.
Be aware that loss of traction may occur
going downhill. Weight transfer to the
front wheels may cause drive wheels to
slip and cause loss of braking and
steering.
Wheels dropping over edges can
cause rollovers, which may result in
serious injury, death or drowning.
To avoid loss of control and possibility
of rollover:
•
•
•
Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips, and
rises that change the operating angle, as
rough terrain could overturn the machine.
•
•
•
•
Do not mow near drop-offs or near
water.
Remove or mark obstacles such as
rocks, tree limbs, etc. from the mowing
area. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Do not mow slopes greater than
15 degrees.
The operating characteristics of the
machine will change with the Bagger
installed. The stability and traction of the
machine will change as the Bagger fills
with grass clippings. Use progressively
greater care on slopes as the Bagger fills.
Reduce speed and use extreme
caution on slopes.
Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed
changes.
•
Always install and remove the Bagger,
including counterweights, as instructed.
Failure to do so will cause a reduction in
stability or traction. Do not operate the
mower with only a portion of the Bagger
installed.

4. Make sure that the spring and rod are installed
so that the rod is retained from sliding out by
the front bracket and the spring holds the
discharge deflector in the down position. Refer
to (Figure 14) for proper orientation.
Replacing the Discharge
Deflector
An uncovered discharge opening will
allow objects to be thrown in
operator’s or bystander’s direction.
Also, contact with blade could occur.
Thrown objects or blade contact can
cause serious injury or kill you or
bystanders.
Important: The discharge deflector must be
spring loaded in the down position. Lift the
deflector up to test that it snaps to the full
down position.
Operating Tips
Larger Machine with Bagger
Remember that the mower is longer and wider
with this attachment installed. By turning too
sharply in confined places you may damage the
attachment.
Never operate mower unless discharge
deflector, or entire grass collection
system, or mulch kit is installed.
1. Locate items shown in Figure 14.
Trimming
Always trim with the left side of the mower. Do
not trim with the right side of the mower because
you could damage the bagger’s chute and
discharge tube.
Cutting Height
Do not set the mower cutting height too low
because long grass surrounding the mower can
prevent air from getting under the mower and
entering the bagging system. If enough air
doesn’t get under the mower, the bagging system
will plug.
Cutting Frequency
Cut the grass often, especially when it grows
rapidly. You will have to cut your grass twice if it
gets excessively long.
Cutting Technique
Figure 14
For best lawn appearance, be sure to slightly
overlap the mower into the previously cut area.
This helps reduce the load on the engine and
reduces the chance of plugging the chute and
discharge tube.

5. Rod
2. Place the discharge deflector on the deck.
Using Bag Liners
3. Orient the spring so that the short leg points
towards the discharge deflector and the
longer leg points towards the deck as
shown in Figure 14. Place spring on rod
and slide rod, straight end, through the front
discharge deflector bracket, discharge
deflector, and rear deflector bracket.
Although not required, bag liners may be inserted
into each grass bag to collect clippings and make
disposal more convenient (Figure 15). If you use
a bag liner, remove the filled grass bag and close
the top of the liner. Then pull the liner out the
grass bag or turn the bag upside down while
14

holding the handle on the bottom of the grass
bag, allowing the liner to slide out.
Bagging Long Grass
Excessively long grass is heavy and may not be
propelled completely into the grass bags. If this
happens, the discharge tube and chute may plug.
To avoid plugging the bagging system, mow the
grass at a high height of cut, then lower the
mower to your normal cutting height and repeat
the bagging process.
Bagging Wet Grass
Always try to cut grass when it is dry because
your lawn will have a neat appearance. If you
must cut wet grass, use the conventional side
discharge feature of the mower. Several hours
later, when the clippings are dry, install the
complete bagger attachment and vacuum up the
grass clippings.
Figure 15
1. Cloth grass bag
2. Bag (liner)
Bagging Speed
Signs of Plugging
Most often you will bag with the mower
throttle in the Fast position and drive at a
normal ground speed. However, in extremely
dry and dusty grass, you may want to slightly
reduce the throttle speed and increase the
ground speed of the mower. The bagging
system may plug if you drive too fast and the
engine speed gets too slow. On hills it may be
necessary to slow the mower ground speed.
This helps maintain the engine speed and
bagging efficiency.
As you are bagging, a small amount of grass
clippings normally blow out the front of the
mower. An excessive amount of clippings blowing
out indicates that the bags are full or the system
is plugged.
As the bagger fills, extra weight is
added to the back of the machine. If
you stop and start suddenly on hills,
you may lose traction and steering
control or the machine may tip.
•
Do not start or stop suddenly when
going uphill or down hill. Avoid
uphill starts.
•
If you do stop the machine when
going uphill, disengage the PTO.
Then back down the hill using a
slow speed.
•
Do not change speeds or stop on
slopes.

Inspecting the Bagger
Attachment
Cleaning the Bagger
Attachment
Inspect the bagger attachment after the first
10 hours of operation, and monthly
thereafter.
1. After each use, remove and wash the
inside and outside of the bagger top,
discharge tube, chute, and the underside
of the mower, using water sprayed from a
garden hose. Use a mild automotive
detergent to remove stubborn dirt.
1. Check the chute, discharge tube, and the
bagger top. Replace these parts if they
are cracked or broken.
2. Make sure you remove matted grass
from all parts.
2. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and screws.
3. Under normal use the bags will
deteriorate and wear. Inspect the grass
bags for deterioration.
3. After washing, let all of the parts dry
thoroughly. Do not wash the grass bags.
Storage
You or bystanders could be severely
injured by flying debris or thrown
objects that may pass through torn,
worn or deteriorated grass bags.
Storing the Bagger
Attachment
1. Clean the bagger attachment; refer to
Cleaning the Bagger Attachment.
•
Frequently check the grass bags
for holes, rips, wear, and other
deterioration.
2. Inspect the bagger attachment for
damage; refer to Inspecting the Bagger
Attachment.
•
•
Do not wash the grass bags.
3. Make sure the grass bags are empty and
thoroughly dry.
If the bag has deteriorated, install
new grass bags supplied by the
manufacturer of this bagger
attachment.
4. Store the bagger in a clean, dry place,
out of direct sunlight. This protects the
plastic parts and extends the life of the
bagger. If you must store the bagger
outside, cover it with a weatherproof
cover.
Inspecting the Mower Blades
Refer to your mower Operator’s Manual for
complete blade maintenance.
Caring for the Grass Bags
Washing the grass bags is not
recommended.

1. When the bags get full, there will be
slight blowout from the front right corner
of the deck. Emptying the bags at this
point will minimize the potential for the
tube to plug.
4. During dry conditions, switching to a
lower lift blade may reduce blowout
without hurting quality of cut.
5. Maintaining a ground speed that does not
pull down the engine RPM will allow for
the highest productivity and best quality
of cut. Bogging the engine RPM down by
going too fast will cause plugging and
quality of cut issues.
2. If there is excessive blowout from the
deck, check to make sure that the rear
screen in the hood is clear of grass build
up. It is recommended that the screen
and mesh portions of the bags be
cleaned regularly to maintain proper air
flow. This is especially important in wet
conditions.
6. When storing the bagger, it is
recommended that any grass build up in
the tubes be cleaned out.
3. During dry conditions check engine air
cleaners and clean cooling fins more
frequently. The bagger has been
designed to minimize the impact of dust
and debris on the mower, but bagging
can be a dirty environment.
