Operation; General Recommendations - Husqvarna 966793002 Manual Del Dueño

TIPS FOR IMPROVED BAGGING
• Follow the mower operation instructions in the
mower operator manual.
• When using the grass catcher on a lawn where
grass and leaf bagging equipment has not been
used, thatch and debris that has accumulated over
a long period is picked up. The amount collected
and the total time of operation may be greater than
experienced with regular use of the grass catcher.
• Always run the throttle at full speed when bagging.
• Select a speed low enough to give good cutting
and bagging performance.
NOTE: It may be necessary to overlap width of cut to
suit conditions.
• If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice;
the first time relatively high, the second time to the
desired height.
• Use left hand side of mower for trimming.
• Plastic trash bags (3.0 mil, 30 gallon) can be
inserted inside grass catcher containers for ease
of debris disposal. To remove the plastic trash
bags when full:
a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage
the parking brake and stop the engine.
b. Unlatch and raise cover.
c. Remove one container at a time by grasping
container handles and pulling toward the rear,
off the tube rails.
d. With the container resting on the ground, close
and secure the top of the plastic lawn bag.
e. Tip the container on its side and slide the filled
bag from the container.
f. Install a new plastic lawn bag with the edges of
the bag draped over upper lip of the container.
g. Repeat for all containers.
h. Reinstall containers making sure center
containers overlap at center supports.
i. Close cover and secure latches over center
support tubes.
• Avoid cutting wet grass or in the morning while the
dew is still heavy. Grass clippings collected under
these conditions tend to be sticky and adhere to
the walls of the flow path.

OPERATION

• If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass
or leaves, it is an indication that clogging has
occurred in the system or that the grass catcher
containers are full.
a. Disengage blades, place motion control levers
in neutral position.
