Checking the
Blade-Brake-Clutch Operation
Check the control bar before each use to ensure that the
blade-brake-clutch system is operating properly.
Using the Grass Bag
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
You can use the grass bag to perform an additional test to
check the blade-brake clutch.
1. Install the empty grass bag on the machine.
2. Start the engine.
3. Engage the blade.
Note: The bag should begin to inflate, indicating that
the blade is engaged and rotating.
4. Release the blade-control bar.
Note: If the bag does not immediately deflate, the
blade is still rotating. The blade-brake clutch may be
deteriorating and, if ignored, could result in an unsafe
operating condition. Have the machine inspected and
serviced by an Authorized Service Dealer.
