button on the lever and move the lever rearward

Important: For proper operation, remove any grass

The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can
result in serious personal injury. Also, an open

and other similar debris to be thrown in the
operator's or bystander's direction and result in
serious personal injury or death to the operator
or bystanders.
Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop before cleaning the bag-on-demand door
and the surrounding opening.
