Fitting the Collection Bag
NOTE: This unit does not come with a leaf collection bag; you
must supply your own. You may use a plastic, paper, or cloth
collection bag, depending on your preferred method of waste
disposal.
1. Open the bag and fit it around the motor housing.
2. Use the elastic strap located at the base of the motor
housing to secure the bag in place (Fig. 9).
NOTE: You may choose to remove the frame and place
the mulcher + shredder directly onto a bin instead for easy
and convenient disposal of the shredded waste.
