Overview The bagger kit can be set up without tools in minutes, provides efficient bagging performance, and has easy-to-empty bags. This is also commonly known as a material collection system (MCS).
Benefits
Bagging
- Two durable bags provide a generous 229-L (6.5-bu) capacity.
- The lower chute provides smooth airflow to reduce the chance of plugging.
- A duct directs air leaving the hopper toward the ground for clean operation.
- Loose-knit bags and a large exit duct allow more air flow to provide complete bag filling in wet grass conditions.
Emptying
- Monitor bag filling progress through a window; see light coming through the loose-knit bag or watch for grass lying against it.
- The hopper lid stays open while you empty the bags.
- The bags slide out with a pull and the handles make emptying easy.
- The hopper cover automatically latches when you close it.
Additional details
- Front ballast is recommended when bagging, especially on hills or inclines. Follow instructions in your operator’s manual.
- Use of rear tow-behind attachments that could contact the hopper assembly is not recommended.
- Installation:
- The bagger kit can be set up without tools in minutes.
- Special mower blades are not required for bagging. Two optional high-lift blades (AM141034) are included to increase bagging performance.
- The kit is easy to remove and stores compactly. No parts are left behind to interfere with other attachments.
The 229-L (6.5-bu) hopper and chute are for use with: Model year 2003 and newer 100 Series Tractors with 107-cm (42-in.) mower deck
