NOTE: Front ballast is recommended, especially on hills or inclines. Includes three bagging blades.
Bagging
- Two durable bags provide a generous 6.5-bu (229-L) 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 for your John Deere 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.
